For me Tico is definately the No. 1 of all drummers in the whole world !!!!!!! :D :D :D

He is wild, he rocks!!!! He has the possibiity to vary, he's a hard drummer but he's got the feeling for the rythm... :D :D :D perfect!!!

The only man that kicks me on the drums like Tico is Don Henley, even if he's got a very different style. (Mooky, you know, what I mean, lol?!)

Take care!

Chrissi :wink:

i remember tico saying that for HIM the best drummer is simon phillips! he admires his technique and his diversity and flexability... after i've heard simon's "out of the blue" live album i totally agree with tico

No I'm not a drummer, but being a bassist makes me think that Tico is one of the first people that I'd like to play along with, he has got a great rhythm and can keep a good beat, listen to I Believe, the drums are fairly simple but very, very effective.
He a very enthusiastic drummer and obviously loves what he does so I'd put him in the top 10 though maybe not number 1. Just like Richie on the guitar, Richie's a fantastic guitarist but maybe not the very best, the same with Tico, a fantasic drummer but not the greatest.
I love to see him on the Live From London vhs, smoking whist drumming, very cool 8)

Is Tico in the top 10? Who cares? I could sit and watch him play drums forever.... (exuse me while a mop the drool coming from my mouth!!!!) :lol: 8) :lol:

i think this'll be my last post on this topic, so i guess i better make it good. i think tico is a great drummer, definately in the top 10. i think there's more talent to him then what we see, if he could just unload and play without his " bon jovi" boundries, i bet he could do incredable things. as a drummer the one thing i noticed about his work is his incredable abilty to play of the toms, it's incredable, so fluent and natural. the only one that compares to him there is the legendary john bonham! cya round,

brijovi, ya, i guess ill post on this again...lol.

How about Ringo? Now there is a great drummer! (lol, ha ha ha)
You know, he had a replacement on some Beatles tunes cause the studio man thought his drumming was unacceptable. Oh, boy. John and Paul write some of the best tunes ever, but their drummer can't keep a beat! Anyway, what about Joey Kramer from Aerosmith? The best is probably John Bonham from Zeppelin.

crap man! u scared for a sec, i thought u were serious about the ringo thing! lol, though u gotta admit, his son is incredable, i beleive he tours with THE WHO..........cya round,

brijovi, ooooooooooooya!
