  18. What do you call the talentless wannabe that hangs around with musicians?
    A drummer.

  19. Buddy Rich
    Keith Moon (who was told he would never be any good as a drummer)
    Ginger Baker (who taught me quite a lot)
    Jon Hiseman (Coleseum)
    Mitch Mitchell (Jimi Hendrix Experience)
    Stuart Copeland

    I could go on and include more people like Allan Ganley (jazz drummer) but I won't.

    All the above are/were superior to any of today's drummers.

    Modern day drummers (with the exception of very few) aren't drummers, they just crash bang wallop as hard and as fast as they can without knowing any of the basic rudiments.
