For amusement: Debates that cannot be solved:

1. The better songwriter: Lennon or McCartney?

2. The better grip: matched grip or traditional grip?

Next??
 
That's easy:

1. Lennon

2. Matched

Problem solved.

Next?
 
Grips are unfortunately endless....French or German, Wrist or Fingers.

Others: Heel up or down.

Coated or clear heads

Double pedal or double bass drums

Maple or Birch

Wood or metal snare drums

I'm sure I can come up with more.......
 
Objective or subjective appraisal of merit (aka modernism vs postmodernism)

The young and the old

Electronic and acoustic

Competition and the arts

Remo / Evans

Zildjian / Paiste

Jazz snobbery and discernment

Jazz death and just smelling funny

Ringo

Kenny G

Stewart Copeland

Meg :)

To be fair, some of these are less eternal than driven by a few people's fixations.
 
Clear vs. coated.
Analog vs. digital.
Paper or plastic.
Cover bands vs. original bands.
Straight ahead Miles vs. Fusion Miles
Folk Bob vs. Electric Bob
Fab Four Beatles vs. Sgt Pepper Beatles
David Lee Roth Van Halen vs. Sammy Hagar Van Halen
Sabbath w/ Ozzy vs. Sabbath w/ Dio
 
What is the best drum/cymbal/stick/head brand in existence?


And pretty much any topic involving Ringo or Neil Peart.
 
Groove vs. chops................................
 
Groove and chops are good ones, right up there with feel an technique.

Plastic and wood tips.

Reading music

Women drummers

Milk and seat belts ... sorry, I was thinking of infernal debates
 
Harry Conway, Saint or just a really nice guy?
