At the risk of getting punched in the mouth, it figures that audiophiles would have such a hard-on for drummers who are anally 'technical' and can't swing or bash (you guess which popular nominees from the posts above qualify for that dubious honor...hint: real drummers play kits of five pieces or less). I don't care how fast you can play paradiddles in odd time signatures, if you can't make me dance to a shuffle or tune your drums with soul, you suuuuck!
