I also like guitar, besides trumpet. I have many favorites, like Angus, Jimi, Angus, Jimi, Kirk Hammett, Angus. Although he's not my favorite, I like a French Jazz guitarist named Django Reinhart. He had two of his playing fingers melted together and still was an outstanding musician. He was a genius
eeerrr... drums I think but that is mainly for Keith Moon who despite not being the best in the wolrd at playing drums is the best "drummer" of all time for his style and antics. Very fast but he was brilliant in The Who and suited them perfectly.
He was an excellent drummer for The Who. Without Keith and his "Pictures Of Lily" drum set I don't think The Who will ever sound the same without him. He did have a slight drug problem if I'm not mistaken as well...
Electric Bass guitar would be my favorite insturment and I also play it, as for a favorite bassist I can't really limit it to one, but the top five (in no order) would be Alex Webster from Cannibal Corpse, Jack Kilcoyne aka Pig Benis from Mushroomhead, Ryan Martinie from Mudvayne, Terry Butler from Six Feet Under, Simen Hestnæs aka Vortex from Dimmu Borgir.

They wern't right before him and they weren't the same without him. I saw them live in I think 2006 and they were still great though. Zak Starkey is 1% the drummer of Moom though.

It is a shame he died of an overdose on the drugs that were prescribed to him to help sure his alcohol addiction. He'd just started to get his life back on track a bit as the "kids are alright" rockumentary shows. When they shot the new footage for it he was all over the place but he lost weight practised etc.
I remember a story of when he was given some Ketamine and told to have half a syringe but he had it all. Oh and the incident where he collapsed during a gig after having Gorilla tranquelisers and they had to get a replacement from the crowd. But hey he was "the best Keith Moon style drummer ever"

Agreed. Moon was quite talented onstage though. I don't think Zak Starkey has as much aggression and talent on the drums as Keith.

Yeah, I thought so. He overdosed on Colemethiazole I believe.

Scot Halpin was really good, but he didn't have the exact same style as Keith although his drumming was good he didn't have Keith's drummer personality, Halpin never blew up toilets!
