Your top 5 drummers
 

Since there is another thread about your top 5 guitarists, it's only right to have your top five drummers. Now i have looked in the other threads and i didn't find another thread the same, so assuming this hasn't been discussed.

Mine are:
1. Tico Torres (Bon Jovi)
2. Alex Van Halen (Van Halen)
3. John Bonham (Led Zeppelin)
4. Lars Ulrich (Metallica)
5. Neil Peart (Rush)

In no particular order,

Tico
Stewart Copeland
Nicko McBrain
George Schwindt (Flogging Molly)
Rick Allen

Paul Geary.

TeeHee.

Actually -

Stewart Copland
Bun E Carlos
Nicko McBrain
Chris Frantz
Max Weinberg
Tico

Yes, 6, i know.

1. Dave Grohl (QOTSA, Nirvana, Tenacious D)

2. Dominic Howard (Muse)

3. Taylor Hawkins (Foo fighters)

4. Tico Torres (Bon Jovi)

5. Joey Castillo (QOTSA)

As a drummer, they all inspire me in different ways.

Oh, and Levon Helm!

John Bonham (Led Zeppelin)
Keith Moon (The Who)
Zak Starkey (Formerley of Oasis and drums for the Who since Moon's death, son of Ringo Starr)
Dave Grohl (Foo Fighters, Nirvana)
Rick Allen (Def Leppard, the guy only has one arm and he's amazing, imagine what he could do still with two?)

can't believe no1 has mentioned Tommy Aldridge!!

Tommy Aldridge:cool: Naw he's good, but he's just not in my top 5 thats all.

does grohl let hawkins drum on the records now or is it still him?

his drumming on the colour and shape is brilliant so i'll say in no particular order:

grohl

stewart copeland (saw the police last year and couldn't take my eyes off of him)

the guy from big country

the dude from matchbox 20

the guy from ocean colour scene

Colour And The Shape was the last album Dave was drummer for ... think he's done a couple songs here and there since then, but Taylor Hawkin's has been the drummer on the albums since There Is Nothing Left To Lose
