I am learning a piece by Dave Weckl at the moment, so looking around at YouTube I came across three of my favourite drummers all doing a drum battle.......go on....who's the daddy?
The problem is Karkus that there is now too many really good drummers around. Can't say i have a favourite as as soon as i think i've found a great new drummer it's not long before theres yet another. And at the moment i am in a lucky position of knowing a 17 year old who quite honestly is the best young dummer i have ever known, he even teaches already and does session work. At the moment 4 known bands are all chasing him, yet he now wants to go to university. Unfortunately the main band he is in at the moment will never go further than small hall gigs and he is way better than the rest but as there all friends his too young to say his moving on.

Well, get a youtube of him playing ! I think its good to find a few candidates and link to some footage instead of the usual lists.
