Who is your favorite drummer? Mine are in my sig. Just curious, who and why?
 
Virgil Donati.

Just watch him. If you don't get it, go study some other drummers for a few years then come back.
 
Bo, that guyses name is *Jens*
Admittedly he's easily among the complicatedst and technicalst drummers ever.

I don't have a favourite drummer - too many to pick one.
 
My Favourite drummer is Keith Moon
Reason:--- he plays differently, not the same old time keeping technical groove thing which all the other drummers follow.
 
Matt Halpern for me, he plays some of the most technical stuff and makes it look so easy and smooth.
 
My 2 favorites are Travis Orbin and Gavin Harrison. Admittedly, I don't keep up that much with the who's who of drummers, but I've never seen anyone like Travis Orbin before.
 
Mine is Keith Moon. His wild, particular style of playing has made him loved by people who understand what drumming is really about, and hated by everybody else. Even though I'm a drummer myself, there are really few drummers I take pleasure listening to. And I think that's what really matters, you know, I get really bored by mediocre drummers with excellent technics, and I love to hear some drummers like Ringo Starr or Mitch Mitchell way more than people like Joey Jordisson and co.
 
Hard to pin point one... but here are a few:

Levon Helm (The Band)
Danny Carey (Tool)
Billy Martin (Medeski, Martin and Wood)
Mitch Mitchell (Hendrix)
Chad Smith (Chili Peppers)
Zigaboo Modeliste (The Meters/Funky Meters)
and of course... Bonham!
