favourite double drummers

[Get In The Van]

I saw the always impressive NoMeansNo with a double drummer set up on one of their tours. think thats the only 'live' gig i've seen with double drummers.
John Wright from the band is an incredible drummer on his own as well!

Now you're talking.
One of my top 5 all time fave bands.
The tour you are referring to was in 1993 and was the 'Why Do They Call Me Mr Happy' Tour.
Tom was wearing a fold lamé
suit...you remember?

John Wright

That sounds about right (pardon the pun! ) wasn't greatly impressed with the set on that tour if i remember, came away thinking that they hadn't played a lot of my favourite tracks, whether the set was to suit the double drummer set up i'm not sure, caught them on their last tour a year or so ago and they were back to amazing again.

Superb, love that

[edit] I've put a few old jazzers in this thread, and seriously, they could all paradiddle all over any of the rock drummers here.

.. or why stop at 2?

Seeing as this thread is now single drummers/coolest, I'll raise the bar to the max with Art Blakey

Not really "favourite", but a nice historical curiosity. Bizarre novelty perfectionist Freddie Crump meets an eight year old Victor Feldman:

I'm surprised no-ones mentioned this Dave Edmunds track (from the album 'Closer To The Flame')




And, seeing as Dave Edmunds co-produced this track (& the eponymous LP it came from - & still in my collection), how about standing up to play a minimal set of drums?, like Slim Jim Phantom??

Another band I saw at ATP a couple of years ago, totally excellent!

I've got to say in all honesty the drummer in my current (and previous) band is one of the best drummers I've ever seen, and certainly the best I've played with.

Here he is being silly and using his hands instead of sticks:

This was filmed while we were working out the 'arrangement' for a cover of Camoflauge by Stan Ridgeway, we played it for a charity heavy metal covers night.
