As a huge fan of tool i can say that you are entitled to your opinion sleepy jack. However, i do not know where you get off thinking he has "midgets" helping him do his fills. I do not understand. He is who he is by this little magic word called dedication, hard work, and ****ing practicing his ass off! I would know the kind of hard work it takes because i too am i drummer/percussionist. I have seen Tool live several times and i am proud to tell you that no, Danny Carey does not suck. He has blistering fills, grace notes that would pucker your *******, use of rudimentary feels to everything that he plays, and above all even putting him in the same category or the same sentence for that matter is just insulting. I think Ringo Starr is one of the worst drummers of all time to pick up a pair of drumsticks. Danny Carey makes the band that is Tool. I do admit that a lot of their guitar riffs and guitar breaks are a lot of the same in most songs, that i do admit. But to sit back and say that Danny Carey, one of my most influential drummers of all time blows, then of course i am going to have to strongly disagree with you. But, you are entitled to your opinion. However, millions of fans would have to disagree with you.
