I bet every list will have "Canada-1"on it :lol

I don't want to spoil anything but let's just say Daniel Adair is doing really well.

Never heard of him.

That's a word salad - and take it from me, I know word salad
I fear for the day when something happens on the right that is SO nuts that even Stadler says "That's crazy".

I’ve got my 25, maybe just a couple that aren’t fairly well known.

I have zero interest in this, but I'll try and scrub up 25, somehow.
Everyone else, except Wolfking is wrong.

According to Wiki, Judas Priest alone have had 10 drummers. If you like Megadeth, then you got more than enough to choose from.  ;D

Dave Holland will not be making my list.  :lol

The drum machine on Ram it Down might though.

Odd snare placement.  More of a Phil Collins kit since it's lacking cymbals.

My parents got me the drums and set them up like that. I think I just sat down and they took the picture.

Uruguay - 0.5

But Rick Allen is English.

I am so sorry.

An art gallery near me was featuring some paintings he's done, I badly wanted one of them, but they're out of my range.  He makes some serious usage of that limb.

I’ve got two such drummers on mine (four if you want to stretch the definition of “drummer for a band”).

I get it!  My 25 looks to be finalized.  Order might need some tweaking over the next two weeks.

Alright new lists updated and I pm'd everyone I've received a list from so if you didn't get a pm please let me know so I'm not missing you. I'm going to update the OP with the folks I have lists from.

Some stats:

- 150 unique drummers
- 12 lists
- 3 different misspellings of Neil Peart
- 4 people misspelled Marco Minnemann's name but at least they did it in the exact same way :lol

Gil Moore was a good drummer, but top 25 worthy? We shall see. I am still putting my top 25 together, and he is one who may or may not make the cut.  The fact that I have downgraded Triumph in recent years will not help his cause.

You are lost in a world of fantasy if you think he's making the top 25.
