favorite drummer in ANY band...

l7 was fun. i used to listen to them.

on the first warped tour, i played wiffle ball with them outside their tour bus... forget about that bloody tampon thing, i saw donita help an injured cricket make its way up an amp. she was a total sweety
 
Brann Dailor from Mastodon is an absolute beast. Check out this performance from some Modern Drummer awards show. This is one of his less busy songs, as well:

 
Des Kenzel from High On Fire also can absolutely pound an already awesome song into another stratosphere:
 
Max Roach, Kenny Clarke, Art Blakey, Louis Hayes, Art Taylor, Egil Johansen, Jo Jones, Sonny Payne, Louie Bellson.....
 
I would go with the two-headed monster of Butch Trucks and Jaimoe. Unbelievable interaction between the two. Plus when you are doing some songs that are longer than most bands sets you need two.
 
Christoph "Doom" Schneider (Rammstein) and although I will probably be ridiculed, Lars Ulrich (White leather jacket and all)
 
I couldn't possibly pick just one.

Brann Dailor, Jimmy Chamberlin, Dave Grohl, and Dale Crover are all favorites. As well as John Bonham, Phil Taylor and the greatest singing drummer Grant Hart.
