this post sure got de-railed quickly.
Anyway I think that pat thetic is a much better drummer. mainly because I don't like the new direction AFI is going in. Namely from hardcore to "Goth". I guess he is more talented too, not really sure.

Heres My Two Cents
Weckyl is I think the most colerful drummer next to terry bozzio though they aren't the same really. but as far as rock drummers go john bonham is probably the best, hes like what buddy rich is to jazz he is to the rock genre. and with prog. rock I think its MIKE PORTNOY of theater and other side projects like liquid tension exp. 1+2 those are the best. I also think Virgil Donati is a kick ass progressive drummer, hes got more practice and more just everything over mike portnoy but hes way to complicated, not that thats a bad thing I love it!! but he plays things in 13/16 time and 21/16 (you would count it 1e+a2e+a3e+a4e+a5e+a6 then right back to one) if you haven't heard of Virgil donati go find the band planet-X, there band has Tony Macalpine on guitar and Derek Sherinian (Older keyboard player from Dream Theater)
and jazz drummers, well buddy rich was the best there ever will be, he could have done anything he push drumming to the limit, if you think doing certain stick tricks and hiting the cymbal on the top then hitting the bottom on the up-swing and having your drums planted on a platform and then the drummer straps him self in to his seat and then gets flipped upside down while playing (allah joey from slipknot) WELL you can thank Buddy Rich for that A JAZZ DRUMMER. I could go on and on about drummers (and im not even a drummer, well I guess i am but im self tought, i think pretty good in terms of groove and having style)
I like other drummers alot and think they are all good in there own right, I will list them in no specific order:
Mike Portnoy
Virgil Donati
Buddy Rich
Danny Carrey
Dave Weckyl
John Bonham
Steve Smith
Neil Pert
Joey From Slipknot (Had to throw a metal Drummer in there, there are alot of great ones)
Lars Ulrich (Old Metallica Days)
theres more but Its to early to think :dozey:
anyways theres my words.
