Neil Peart without a doubt....

 

Terry Bozzio

Mike Portnoy, no questions. Listen to Dream Theater or Liquid Tension Experiment and you'll understand.

 

Can't forget about Neil Peart either.

Neal Pert - Ladies and Gentleman, simply put, "THE GREATEST WHOM HATH EVER LIVED"

Steve Gadd

[JMG_02]

Absolutely Carter Beauford...no question. I've been a drummer for life...and that bluesy/funk/jazz is SO much harder than the steady fast rock. Carter LIVES on the upbeat and does it so effortlessly...I just get lost in trying to comphrehend some of his beats.

[Laz]

nobody here know marco minnemann from germany? Mistake :shok:

[rufus mangler]

Seat of the pants, runaway train style- Keith Moon. John Bonham.

 

Technicians-Billy Cobham. Neil Peart. Carter Beauford. Carl Palmer.

IMO Neil has them all beat.

[sbgolfer]

I'll say Travis Barker from Blink 182. That guy is unbelievable!!! :bad:

Word!

[DRGJR72]

Neil Pert, John Bonham, and Stuart Copeland.....

 

Top three IMO.....Neil is legit (massive drum kit), John is the man (wow is all I have to say, Moby Dick was mind blowing!!)), and Stuart hits the drums harder than anyone (can't argue with that if you have seen them in concert)......

 

Pretty good triumvirate.
