POLL: Who's the better drummer?

[MDE]

Lars Ulrich (Metallica) or Max Weinberg (Bruce Springsteen and the E-Street Band)?
I was watching a Conan O'Brien rerun and listening to Metallica at the same time and this popped into my head. Any thoughts?

 

[MDE]

Who voted 'other' and didn't list?

 

[Eli]

It depends on your definition of "better", but out of these two choices.. definately Lars.

 

[Feldenak]

It's a toss up for me. Either Lars Ulrich or Neil Pert

Edit: I voted other for Pert

 

[bradruth]

I'd say Max Weinberg is more technically skilled and has displayed more range.

 

[bradruth]

Bah, double post.

 

[Coquito]

well, i doubt any conan fans would say anything but max. i just despise lars so much, even if he is a decent drummer.

i would also vote the max weinberg 7 the best band on late night.

 

[ndee]

Dave Weckel!

I've seen Max do everything that Lars can do. I've never seen Lars do anything CLOSE to what Max does, even in a routine sketch on Conan. Plus Max isn't a lawyer. Plus Max isn't a fvcking asshole.

I'm a Conan and Metallica fan (and hate Lars, he just seems like a giant egotistical a$$hole to me), but I think Lars is more skilled, but Max is more polished (and TV friendly).

I had to Google Max b/c I've never watched Conan.

 

[BurnItDwn]

my favorute drummer is Dan Swano, however of the ones listed Max Weinberg.

 

[fumbduck]

Dave Grohl is a superb drummer. He drums for many bands, but sings lead for his main.

He was the drummer for Nirvana.

He also did the whole first Foo Fighter's album by himself, ever vocal, guitar, drum, bass, everything.. it was just him.

No, I just don't believe in bullsh|t.

Of course, almost ANY other drummer is better than those two, but between those two choices, It's Max.
And, amazingly, they share the same obnoxious personality!

Strange, My mileage was different.

If you had a significant amount of experience being a drummer, you'd know differently.

I never thought anybody here at ATOT would know of Weckel or White.
