| RSBF | Hel, what are you doing up this late girl? okay, drummers: i'm an expert in this category (okay, no hacks on that please hahaha!) Jay Brown - MY GOD - just recently saw him perform for the first time and could not believe my eyes. anyone who says punk drumming is easy, needs to take a look at the art/science this guy has going on. exceptional. a pleasure to watch......... and not just cause he's Jay Brown. DMD (Death Metal Dave) - Gorilla Monsoon - i saw his skill from the age of 19 and he has progressed beautifully to age 24 - can't imagine how good he'll be at 30 - SCARY! Aaron B. - Gallows End - Christ - self-taught, playing for 4 years and he slays....... he's a DMD in the making but i'm thinking he could go toe-to-toe with DMD *right now* even though there's quite a few years difference in experience. They sure grow them good these days ; ) Aub - BELT - um, yeah - will someone please pick him up and take him on tour - what a waste keeping this guy in Victoria. well this is all i know for now............ drummers rule.

| Ty Stranglehold User Info... | John Wright of Nomeansno - Sun, 9 Feb 2003 4:02am | ||
| Chris Logan User Info... | Have to agree with Ty about Mr. Wright. Also, the first drummer for the Jesus Lizard (can't remember his name) played the rock with great authority. - Sun, 9 Feb 2003 4:21am | ||
| Anonymous | who gives a rats ass as long as they can keep a beat and work with the REST of the band. After all it is a band so one hot shot doth not maketh it good. Besides, its drummers people, not somthing important like guitars! - Sun, 9 Feb 2003 4:38am | ||

| Chris Logan User Info... | "Fuck ya, the guy from Jesus Lizard was great. We opened up for them back in like 90 when I was in Drone. They were fucking awesome that singer was such a weirdo" I was in a band opening for the Jesus Lizard in Montreal around the same time. I already liked Scratch Acid but hadn't heard the Lizard yet--I remember me and my buddy joking about how we were going to wipe them off the stage. So we go down to soundcheck and they're just about to do their first song--it took about ten seconds to realize that we were going to be taught an authoritative lesson on how to play the rock. Still one of the best shows I ever saw. Speaking of weirdos--Yow, the singer, was talking to us after that show (we were fawning a bit because we had been so thoroughly humiliated). He was always known to be a little mental on stage. Anyway, he tells us about this one show they played in Chicago at the end of one of their tours. Everyone's a little sick and fucked up after a few weeks on the road. Towards the end of the set Yow goes down into one of his famous squats while he's singing and drops a load in his pants. As a consummate professional he refuses to let a good opportunity go by and flings the shit out into the audience. At the end of the show he walks off stage, caked in his own shit, and the first person he meets is...his mother. Apparently the first time she ever came to one of his shows. Not drum related but a good tale, nonetheless. - Mon, 10 Feb 2003 2:00am | ||
| Chris Logan User Info... | Mac McNeilly--that was the guy's name from the Jesus Lizard. Truly a monster. - Mon, 10 Feb 2003 4:25am | ||
| Marv Pontiac | Id have to say, Denis Chambers Is one bad mofo, Kenny Clarke, Clyde Stubblefield( the J.B.'s), Zigaboo from the Meters, George Raines( Austin Texas' finest), and yeah,Dustin Shwam gets my local rock n' roll vote for sure. - Mon, 10 Feb 2003 5:06am | ||

| serendepity | As far as local drummers go, the drummer in the band "Darksell" out of Van. (sort of local??) is fucking amazing and i think the Drummer for the band Dizzy is fucking wicked and very under-rated. He plays very tight and puts on a show all himself. two of my favorites anyway. - Mon, 10 Feb 2003 9:05pm | ||

| Tim Fry User Info... | Danny Carey of Tool, Nobody else does what he does. Gene Hoglund is the best metal drummer by far, and SYL is the most underappreciated band on earth. - Tue, 11 Feb 2003 12:57am | ||
| Luke Duke | "Animal" from the Muppet Show. Never faltered, even with some dude's hand up his ass. - Tue, 11 Feb 2003 1:36am | ||

| Dave User Info... | I agree, Jeremy. Not only does he drum well, but he sings at the same time and this is hard to do properly. I know, I'm still working on that. - Thu, 13 Feb 2003 10:53am | ||

| Adrenaline Animal | Actually I don't sing anymore, not since Speakeasy (except in the car) But my fav drummers would have to be: John Wright - Nomeansno Jordan - Strung out/Pulley Jord Harrison - Propaganghi Taylor and Dave Grohl - Foo Fighters Danny Carey - Tool Matt Sorham - Gn'R/Cult - Mon, 17 Feb 2003 1:30am | ||
