nick mason... probably my favorite drummer i mean this guy w/ his on key beats just so perfect and rhythmic this guys gotta be one of the best out there what do yall feel
I think he's the best possible drummer that Floyd could have. He's better than decent, but certainly not a drumming God like Peart, Bonham, or Moon.
think max weinberg and nick mason should switch places i love to see mason on the conan obrein show so the world could see his talent rocker
yea, he'd make the show warmer and also hopefully bring some more comedy into it... not sure how though.

oo alright but who are those guys what bands are they from?
Bonham - Led Zeppelin
Moon - The Who
Peart - Rush
Mason is smooth. His drumming on Breathe, Echoes, and Us And Them is awesome - so laid back.
That classic style that he uses a lot. Cymabaline, The Narrow Way Pt.3, Atome Heart Mother Suite, Echoes, A Saucerful Of Secrets (Pompeii Version), Breathe and Breathe (reprise), The Great Gig In The Sky, Us And Them, Brain Damage and Shine On You Crazy Diamond all, at various points, have that same drumbeat. Normally, I'm somebody who usually would criticize a band for repeating something they've already done but Pink Floyd is an exception. I love Nick Mason's drumming. He's underated in my opinion.
