seconding this. was trying to decide which to lean towards, but think i'll have to go with bonham. i'm pretty sure he was stomping the high-hat for every beat of every led zeppelin song ever... always thought that was awesome.

I don't know much about drummers, but I've gotta say that Joey Jordison from Slipknot's a beast.

Out of the five listed I would have to say Kieth Moon. However, my favorite drummer is David Grohl.

Dave is so much better as a guitar player...

I don't think so at all. Maybe for being such a great drummer, but his guitar style is pretty mediocre for a lead guitarist. What would be great if he actually relegated someone else to vocal duties and expanded his songwriting ability. He's such a multitalented individual, and he's played drums on some of the best modern rock albums. I really respect the guy, and he carries a lot of emotion up on stage. It's a damn shame that he hasn't realized that he's bollocks as a vocalist.
