Best Drummer

It doesn`t ask who is technically better though.

I`d rather watch Keith Moon than anyone else on that list.

True, but skill is a factor in being the best, its different than being the greatest.

For example, there are many better drummers than Moon, but probably none greater.

I dont think putting on a good show is part of being the best, its a merely subjective thing, being the best at anything is something i always like to objectify, and i think putting on a great show dosent make you the best, plus being very charasmatic live dosent really factor in the music...Thats just me though, but i think theres a difference between musicians and performers, some people can be good performers but sh*tty musicians (even as someone who likes Motley Crue, you should know where im going here

) and some can be good musicians but bad performers, many of these virtuoso type guitarists are on stage just standing there, either faking their facial expressions (very unconvincingly) or make none at all.

Im not slagging Moon, who probably is my favorite Drummer (either him or Bonham or Grohl) its just that in technical terms, there are many who rise above him in the ability level.

Im not sure if you may of had this but i think the drummer from audioslave is really good because he has excellent speed and awesome love for music.

Listen to it and you'll see what i mean

Pffft flag Audioslave, check out Rage Against The Machine.

Apart from Audioslaves singer, Chris Cornell, the rest of the band belonged to Rage in the 90's. The drumming isn't much different but the overall band kicks so much more arse.

Chris Cornell was originally from Soundgarden. So if you like his vocals on Audioslave then check out Soundgarden too.

Just checking if I was logged on. Now i'll write this all over. It's frustrating reading some of these opinions. Come on, Ringo? Really? Her is my best of the best.

1. DANNY CAREY
2. Neal Peart
3. Terry Bozzio
4. mike portnoy
5. Jon Theodore

Now the ffirst four are a fact, and if you haven't checked out Mars Volta please do. Jon is one of the most exciting drummers i'v ever seen,except GOD(Danny Carrey)
