..Tony Allen!..
..Hell yeah..
Completely agree and to me is a mystery why he is not on the 'radar' from this place (also on the forum he is not mentioned a lot)..
I mean, afrobeat is not really a 'little' music genre (to say the least) and the guy is an icon..
Like..an ICON..
I guess thats just how is, a list like that will always create debate..
That goes for all lists basically..
Wasn't David Krusen playing on Pearl Jam's Ten? Their best album, imo.I am not a fan of his playing, but he should be recognized as he’s the drummer that was on the albums and toured with them when they were in their prime. I’m sure there are other drummers on the list there that have similar background considering he was in one of the biggest bands in the world at a time.
On a side note, I think he totally got screwed for the Rock-n-Roll HOF for the same reason. Though they say otherwise, Pearl Jam obviously had something to do with it as Eddie Vedder didn’t like him personally and he’s not even mentioned or shown in PJ20. It is like they want to pretend he was never in the band.
At the very least, they didn’t fight for him to be in it as they may have Matt Cameron.

Ah, the glamour of being a Drummerworld moderator. I’m sure the destination was well worth that journey!I think the bigger question is, How does one become a moderator on Drummerworld. Bernhard scours the hospital records for drummers who at some point in time have had head or brain injuries. He then puts out a bogus email offering free drum goodies and trips to Switzerland. The trips are arranged through the Don't Book with Us, travel agency, who are using a 2050 calendar, and most dates are filled. He also buys us each, 1 lottery ticket and tells us he will let us know when we win. So we wait. Then he lets us view his Facebook page for free. that's it.
All one has to do is look at an issue of Modern Drummer or Drum! that 10 years old or more and see how many names were hot for a moment, and then were never heard from again.
Yeah, but according to my wife, you're still HOT. lolI think it's been about 10 years since I regularly appeared in Modern Drummer or DRUM!
Well, please tell her I said thank you. lolYeah, but according to my wife, you're still HOT. lol

I'll trade my entry for yours, but you also have to do the Weird Al gig.Wow thanks for the explanation Bernhard-I had no idea of the effort and issues involved in this. I also enjoy when you introduce new drummers but I had no idea it was a mutual addition. I think this explains things nicely-I haven't even noticed Terry B. wasn't in lineup and I'm surprised there wasn't a thread wanting his addition (but at least we have an answer for such a request). I knew you made the decisions but I started thinking about telling posters you make the decision-I don't want them harassing you with "their demands". So perhaps we need a thread for posters to "I'll just drop this here" to post drummers they find of interest and maybe a future DW addition of best jacket. Granted it isn't our cyberpunk decision nor the forum member who suggest it but the actual drummer and you, but it can provide a venue for forum members to discuss such things. We can refer to your response as a FAQ so posters will understand the complexities of such a request. I understand the passion many drummers have for their favorite drummers and would want them on DW but seems some are indignant or overbearing and make aggressive demands (fortunately few). Thanks for the response Bernhard-and thanks for all your effort making DW the best drum site on planet.
