Influences

So this is where I list a lot of really cool players to impress you, right? So a better exercise is to let you know that I am what would be classified as a pocket player. The reason I started playing the drums is Neil Peart, that said I do not play exactly like Neil. The guy who I would be closest to, and who is also a big influence is Steve Jordan. So now a slew of really cool drummers I really like top of the list would be Elvin Jones. From there Stewart Copeland, Steve Gadd, Keith Carlock, Mitch Mitchell, Simon Kirk, Roy Haynes, Billy Stewart, Mike Joyce, Boris Williams, Dave Clark, Phil Gould, and many more.
