Sorry, I guess we'll just have to agree to disagree on this...

Not needing the money doesn't seem to be a reason for most big acts to not jump on a lucrative, occasional tour...these guys might be the exception.

I like Vinnie ( I've played drums for over 40 years and some of that time semi-professionally as a weekend warrior ) but there are a lot of great drummers out there. Neil Peart was never one of my favorites mostly because I'm not a prog rock fan per se but I don't hold that against him.

Awesome.

FYI, check out Zappa plays Zappa. Vinnie and Tal. It was just uploaded on utube a few days ago.

It's really not debatable. There are simply better drummers.
