Me neither. I had a few people email me asking me to add him as an option. I guess someone created a few accounts with different emails in order to boost his rating. Maybe I need to start setting and checking cookies and IP addresses.

Voted.

Nicely put together, Paul.

I think at some point(s) I'd have Per Lindvall in my top 10.

Oh yes, I'll add him. I forgot about Pierre Van DerLinden and Phil Gould too!

People creating fake accounts...?...wow, talking of having issues. I think you should enforce some dignity into this poll. 50 is a very long list any way. You need a lot of decent drummers to make a decent poll. To have a 'motivation' for the top 10 drummers would be nice. ...Vinnie is the greatest drummer ever. Simply because there is no drummer who covers more ground, who plays that many styles of music at that level, like a specialist. But after 'Him' :) it gets tricky. Hard if not impossible to choose between all these great people.

I've removed a few drummers from the database. My policy is to only add drummers who are represented on DrummerWorld.com or at least have a presence on YouTube of some sort.

So weird how the Charlie Harrington fella has so many fan-boys/girls, yet I can't find one video of him online.
