Best Drummers

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

I know I've already chosen one....but my newest fav drummer is Travis Whatshisface from Blink 182 ( NOW STOP LAFFING) and is he in Transplants too?? he's a bit special, if you can see beyond the Blink182 mularky and actually watch and listen to him, he's rather accomplished - oh and I fancy the pants off him too LMAO

Big Paul Ferguson - ex Killing Joke and sadly missed. They've been good since he left, but not that good.

Greedy? Corporate? The man who has a free website solely dedicated to downloading Metallica gigs? I think not. There's nowt wrong with being protective about your music Paddy. The Napster backlash was totally unwarranted. There was never an issue of greed - only him (and the rest of the band) not wanting some spotty computer geek making money from them.
