    You know, it's funny. I got dragged along to an Alanis Morisette concert once and the only person I was really interested in seeing was him, but he'd bleedin' well left the band by then. :(

    Matt Cameron
    Jimmy Chaimberlain
    Sean Kinney
    Mike Bordin

    Bordin is great.

    Chamberlin was the only good thing about the Pumpkins when I saw them at Reading last year. That guy has phenomenal power.

    Keith Moon DEFINITLEY elevates the music to a whole new level.

    My favourite though is Dave Grohl. Probably my favourite all around musician.
    Believe me, when I was growin up, I thought the worst thing you could turn out to be was normal, So I say freaks in the most complementary way. Here's a song by a fellow freak - E.V
