i would love to meet and play drums with Tommy Aldridge. He is one of the best rock double bass drummers, quite amazing to see. I rip him off all the time. Listen to Ozzy "tribute to randy rhoads." If you've never heard it, it's live disc featuring rhoads, aldridge and sarzo with ozzy doing all of blizzard of ozz two tunes from diary and three sabbath songs. the BEST version of children of the grave. steve smith (journey) sib hashian (close, i met his wife at the tribute to brad delp) ian paice (the most underrated drummer of all time. don't tell any one, but i think he blows john bonham out of the water, or rather....he did. listen to the single stroke rolls out of the breakdown of space truckin') yngwie malmsteen (my favorite guitar. he's almost to big to suck in those cheeks. steve vai will always beat him at that) greg bissonette (i'd travel in time and kidnap him so maybe i culd play on david lee roth's eat 'em and smile) tom scholtz ( i'd tell him to stop using triggers on the drums. go back to old school! YOU recorded oone of the best sounding rock albums of all time, do it again, dammit) cozy powell ( i can wait) layne stayley (still missing that voice, one of the best) john cusack (i have never not like any of his films, but better off dead is my favorite) peter benchley richard bachman (he made it so i could start and finish a steven king novel. the long walk and the rage are amazing short stories.) wes craven (i'd sell him on my well thought out nightmare.. prequel) sean s. cunningham (some are better, some aren't) vinny appice (i'd tell him carmine who?) goerge romero the group of writers from the state and freaks and geeks animal (the last three shows i've played people say i reminded them of tommy lee, but it really reminded them of animal, they just didn't realize) mike portnoy, no no no, john petrucci sebastian bach, michael sweet and don dokken (my original favorite singers.) david coverdale (my favorite lead vocalist. robert who?) heaven and hell (they proove once again that, black sabbath can top the charts with out ozzy) ozzy (i want my chance ) nick menza (my avorite megadeth drummer) dave mustaine (how's it fell being consisently better than metallica?)
