As usual, I found this while looking for something completely different, but it blew me away, so I thought I'd pass it on.
Nicko McBrain from Iron Maiden:

Very good. Ahhh, the power of triplets. I think he is a better drummer than a lot of people give him credit for.
Can't listen to Iron Maiden though.......sorry.

I'm not a huge Maiden fan either, Stu, but I thought that was a great vid. I love to see people at the top of their game making complex stuff look that easy, and having fun doing it.

I enjoy a good drumming video as much as the next guy. I enjoyed this one, thanks.
I enjoyed a few Jeff Porcaro ones. The Rosanna (Toto) drum beat (shuffle) is an absolute work of art. Pity he died so young. Many people do not realise what a prolific session drummer he was. Played on 100's of tracks including Michael Jackson.

Yeah, both Porcaro and David Paich (kbds) were top session guys, and Steve Lukather (guitar) was actually named (by Gibson) as one of the Top 10 session guitarists of all time. That's why Toto were so slick.
