With all due respect to the world's great drummers - it ain't brain surgery.
I'd be very honored to be the ambassador to drum solos.
I'm still the best Keith Moon-style drummer in the world.
My son now is 22 months old, he's been playing since he was 12 months old and he gets standing ovations on the drums. He's been with us since he was 10 weeks old, he's been on the drums. He's got blisters on his fingers before he can even talk.
I play the drums really, really badly.
When I listened to Elvin Jones, man, for the first time I heard a drummer that had all the technique plus emotion, passion, feel, and just - good God!
If you have a great band with a mediocre drummer, you have a mediocre band. If you have a mediocre band with a great drummer, you have a great band!
I've never thought too much of 'Rolling Stone.' The first thing I'd do is look at about 50 or 60 of the drummers they have ahead of me and go, 'Oh yeah, right!'
I love the way Pharell is laying down great drum tracks. He is a great drummer.
I knew when I got to play with Al Jackson I would be a better bass player because he was the best drummer in the world. I worshipped him.
I've always liked Dennis Chambers, he's real flashy.
I warm naturally to the drummer whose ideas and approach are strong, even if he doesn't quite have the ability to carry them out.
I have an erratic drummer for anybody who's just listening to this, he can keep time, but just in spurts.
It's harder to play drums than guitar, physically. I'm always kind of on the edge. I guess that's how I play everything: on the edge of my ability.
I'd rather be entertained and go to a show and watch a drummer and have somebody that makes me actually smile. So I don't judge drummers based on their technical ability; I judge them based on the overall package and what they bring to the music they're part of.
I think I was the best drummer!
I'm the Best Keith Moon-type drummer in the world.
Average band with a great drummer sounds great, great band with an average drummer sounds average.
When I speak of natural drummers I'm talking about guys that are playing with the talent God gave 'em.
It's nice when somebody says that you're their 'favorite' drummer.
Buddy Rich is one of a kind; he's a genius, and that's all there is to it.
The thing about Matt Cameron is he has made us 1000 times a better band than we've ever been. He's such a freight train on drums and such a cool individual as a man that it makes us better as a band, and we are now complete with him.
I am the best rock drummer on the planet.
I'm the best live rock drummer. That's what I think of myself. That's who I am. I can't help it.
Artt Frank is my all-time favorite drummer. He always seems to know where I'm going.
