Mike Mangini (Dream Theater) - Live Solo in New Jersey

Via

He's no Mike Portnoy, but he's pretty darn good. Actually, he might be very close - almost as good, but he's nowhere near as creative, IMHO. I've heard & seen dozens of solos better than this one, at least at the beginning. The single-stroked accelerated drum roll, along with the last few minutes of the video are where he shines - he's got incredibly fast hands!! ..Starting at about 4:05 to the end is insane.

Drumming Legends - A Megapost

Iron Maiden's Nicko McBrain - Live At Guitar Center's Drum-Off


This man-legend is now 56 years old! Still one of the very best ever to pound the skins..

Neil Peart - And the Masters - At Work


There might not ever be anyone better.

3:03-3:09 OMG!

Neil Peart is now 57, and still rockin'.. My one idol growing up. Certainly one of the dozen men I would give anything to meet in my lifetime. His influence will linger for decades... Simply amazing!



Now there is.. Mike Portnoy of Dream Theater


Currently the best drummer in the world. No doubt about it. Just go listen to some Dream Theater.

Old, and long 80's hair, but an incredible demonstration:

The 100 Best Rock Drummers Ever

Mike Portnoy, Dream Theater

Well, here it is, The 100 Best Rock Drummers Ever! From early rock 'n' rollers, to metal powerhouses, we've listed the best rock drummers the world has ever seen.

Of course, music and drumming is subjective, and everyone will have their own idea of who the best drummers are. You might not agree with the list and that's fine. It's more of a ball park ranking than anything truly exact.

Ok, we'll start off at the bottom and work our way up to the coveted number one spot.
