DD...you play with Gene Krupa too?

J/K...don't forget Artimus Pyle (great name for a southern rock band sync-keeper)

 

[Dangerous Dave]

Man, I aint THAT old!! NHY, I returned your PM.
Forgot a couple of skin pounders:
Carmine Appice (saw him live once: KILLER.)
Charlie Watts (less is more)
Jim Gordon (sorry to hear he's in a psyco ward somewhere out here)

NHY -I would have included Pyle too, but -correct me if I'm wrong about this- I heard that he's a kid-toucher.

Never saw anyone better then John Bonham. No wonder Led Zeppelin broke-up after he died, he was irreplaceable.

Also, if you remember the band Montrose - Denny Carmassi, a fellow Bay Area boy was an awesome drummer.
