A drum solo like you've never seen before.

Neil Peart is in my opinion the best drummer that has come along since Bonham, Jimmy "The Rev" Sullivan, and Shannon Leto. He is right where he belongs and that is at the top of the best 10 rock drummers.

Outstanding!  Never saw so many drums.  Thanks!

Glad you liked it, Markle.

Keith Moon.

My son is a drummer and at 29 with two kids he has cut back with his group on playing events and clubs, but it was fun to see the evolution of a Junior High kid who liked music into a drummer.  His energy on Stage was incredible and there is something magical about the same which made the WHO with Keith Moon into a force which Rock and Roll has seldom seen.

I always thought the joke about what do you call a drummer who has broke up with his girlfriend..........homeless, exemplified that raw primal energy which makes a drummer good.  My son has a massive set of drums, breaks sticks and cymbals......but the drums have so little to do with what makes a drummer great.....Look at some of the early WHO videos and how simple his drum set was.......

That sonofabitch would really be good if he had a few more drums.

Aw come on seaoat, Keith Moon could not hold a candle to Neil Peart. Hell Rick Allen, the drummer for Def Leppard that suffered a severe accident and had one of his arms amputated, is better with one arm than Keith Moon ever was with both of his intact.

I would also pit my nephew against any amateur drummer around. He is self taught and has never had a lesson in his life. He started playing when he was about 12 years old and is now 34. But in all honesty, he is not only good, he is damn good. He has a chance to be a studio drummer in Nashville but that would require uprooting he and his family and that is something that he refused to do.
