Yeah, that's not to say there aren't great drummers at the double bass. Danny Carey of course.

I do have a hard on for some of the more technical drummers, like Bruford and Peart. But while they're very technical they still know how to suit the songs perfectly.
Bill Bruford has always been my favorite rock drummer.
