    1. Buddy Rich

    2. Peart
    In no particular order: Bonham, Copeland, Chester Thompson, Bill Bruford, Carl Palmer, Eric Carr, Tommy Aldridge, the Appice brothers, Dave Grohl, Matt McDonough, Cozy Powell and Mr. Buzio from Missing Persons, not rock but no less awesome.

    My boss?? Haaah. I like your list. Did you get Mick Fleetwood? I was thinking Neil Peart... #1 on your list.

    Very good list. Nice to see Chester Thompson, Bill Bruford, and Carl Palmer on there.

    Bonham, Peart, and Moon would be my top three. I always liked Ian Paice's work as well, but I don't know if he'd make my top 10.

    Travis Barker.. Is no one going to mention him? That guy has been in a plane crash.. Lost his best friend.. Had huge burns and skin grafts all over his body.. And he is still just as epic as he was before.

    The Rev - A7X - ok, metal rather than rock but a wicked drummer IMO.
