Vinnie Colaiuta is awesome he should be on the list.
Peart? Limited? No versatility? Are we talking about the same Neil Peart? Possibly the most versitile percussionist to ever play in the genre of rock music. It's not just in his fills either, Peart's accents and subtle styling within even the most simple of rhythm is what sets him apart.

In the end you can like whomever you wish. All i'm saying is, next time you listen to Rush, listen closely.
