Neil Peart-Rush
Scary, absolutely scary. The guys timing is unbelievable.

Honorable mention:

Abe Cunningham-Deftones, I saw them before they were famous at a small club in Vancouver. I was totally amazed at the guy, he was a clock.

 

[05 Roush]

John Bonham.

 

[grandestang]

Maybe not the best drummer of all time, but definetly one of the most famous and amazing to watch: John Bonham.

Zeppelin RULES!!

Paul

EDIT: you beat me to it Platinum

The classic, the one and only: Ron Bushy

From Iron Buttefly

Most classic drum solo ever..in-a-gada-da-vida

download it(the long version: over 17 minutes), you will not be disappointed. Bushy started the drum solo tradition. He used to pass out at concerts because he would do a drum solo for over 20 minutes. If there is a godfather of rock drum solos it would be Bushy..Only the best can recreate and ahe the stamina of Bushy's solo in in-a-gadda.

It's impossible to pick just one: Neal Peart, Niko McBrain, Lars Ulrich, Alex Van Halen, Tommy Lee,....the list goes on and on! :rockon:

I liked Lars Ulrich when Metallica played in philly, hes F*n sick. And GodSmack opened for them and their drummer is sick.

I just saw Metallica two weeks ago, here in New Orleans. This makes the 7th time I have seen them live.
