That's an enjoyable clip. I always like watching people make music out of anything, it's pleasing.
Although he's not doing anything most drummers couldn't do.

Travis is actually a good drummer from a technical standpoint. He just doesn't get to show it off a lot.
This is about the best drummer ever, so maybe someone could establish criteria, because going on preference it's pointless.

Nick Mason's drum kit is nothing compared to Danny Carey's or Neil Peart's. Then again he's nothing to them, technically.

Has anyone seen some of the DCI drummer's video's?
Those guys are crazy on some rudimental marching drums, and I think that qualifys them on at least some technical ability.

Originally posted by Alpha CentauriTrue. But it is still pretty spectacular. Not to be compared with Carey's or Pert's because theres have stuff like synth's and crazy soundmaking drumpads and stuff like that. In Mason's later years like when he was working on the Wall he did indeed have a very lovely drumset that i would DIE for.

Indeed, like Buddy Rich.

Anyone that is interested can see some genuinely amazing drummers on that site, rather than assuming that the best drummer ever must be one of the drummers from the limited amount of bands they listen to.

Speaking of kits:
It's hard to say who really is the best, we all have our own taste.
But then again...
I've seen the streetdrummer vid before. It's amazing yeah. John Bonham (Led Zeppelin RIP) was amazing. My personal #1 is Dale
Crover of the Melvins. It's so complicated what he does. Asynchronous patterns, rhythm going from 4/4 to 5/4 or 5/8. Dale never leaves a count spared. It's hard to get "into" the Melvins sound, but ones you start to know a few songs and listen to his drums, it's stunning. If you try to follow him, it's impossible. Everything is different. Mirroring patterns. Sometimes I cannot even explain, just listen. Example are the songs "the anti vermin seed" (technical) and "the bit" (heavy)
