Best drummer at Live Earth?

[Almuric]

They all did their thing, but who was the stand-out in your opinion?


For me it was Stewart Copeland, but I missed alot of the concert. Tico Torres did a great job (as usual) too.

[Garvin]

Well, that's a tough one. Of the shows I saw I really liked Jimmy Chamberlin and whoever played drums for Macy Gray. I thought everyone played well though.

i couldn't help but think the drummer from red hot chilli peppers was will ferrell. so i really enjoyed that. there was also a little asian drummer who was very good as well

Chad Smith for the Chili Peppers was ON FIRE! He was probably one of the most solid drummers throughout the entire gig. Stewart Copeland was of course super solid, in his own sloppy way. I'm not saying he's bad, he sucks, or anything like that. He's a master and I love his drumming, but in nature the Police sound is sloppy and loose, which isn't a bad thing.

The drummer for Bloc Party and the drummer for Duran, Duran had the WORST sounding kits EVER! Especially Bloc Party. He was using a 5 piece Pearl Reference with Frosted EC2's over Clear G1's with tape all over them. They had absolutely no tone, thumpy at best.

As for Duran, Duran's drummer...I believe his poor kit sounds was due to poor micing placement, mic choices, and the FOH guys.

I never saw a lot of the performances but , the Foo Fighters absolutely owned the stage and the crowd.

Did I say that right? owned? pwned?

He and Spinal Tap were Awesome!!!!

Yeah I didn't see the Chili Peppers but Taylor Hawkins and the Foo Fighters were awesome. They were probably the best performance that I saw. Copeland and the Police were awesome as well, especially on Driven to Tears and Can't Stand Losing You.

I also liked Ralf Gustke but I can´t remember who he played with.

I liked the drum line set, but only caught a small part of it, who were the 3 drummers on the kits, I know 1 was Roger Taylor from queen and wasnt 1 Chad Smith from the RHCP but who was the 3rd one?
