One Word Game

[Plaid]

Ok, let's try a little game here. I'll list the drummers that are primary talked about on this forum, and you can only use ONE word to describe them. "I had to use two words" is NOT an option here!!! [img]wink.gif[/img] This should actually be pretty challenging! Here we go:

1) Vinnie Colaiuta - Incomparable

2) Dave Weckl - Calculated

3) Virgil Donati - Mindblowing (from the little I've seen and heard)

4) Steve Smith - Dedicated

5) Peter Erskine - (have not heard enough to form opinion)

6) Horacio Hernandez - Ambidextrous

7) Steve Gadd - Style

8) Dennis Chambers - Powerful

9) Smitty Smith - Speed

10) Gregg Bissonette - Smooth


Erase my answers, put yours in their place, and feel free to add more guys in addition to what I've listed here.
