Who was it? Is there any video of him performing with Styx?

Aranoff's great, but you don't seriously believe he blows Todd away, do you?
Maybe I've just not seen him do anything that spectacular. I don't get why the hate for Todd.
The guy's a superb drummer.

Fogerty's songs are not nearly as difficult as Styx tunes, so I wonder what would make u say this?

Get back to me when he can play Dream Theater stuff like Mike Portnoy or the new guy, Mike Mangini, or even a host of other drummers.

Dude, I hate the fact that DDY isn't with Styx anymore and that their replacement couldn't hold Dennis' jock... but does every reply you make have to slam the band and all members? Kenny Aronoff is a great drummer, but does not blow Todd away. You only say that to put down a member of Styx. Are all your opinions only based on that?

I have said this for years Steve Smith blows Todd away and Kenny is the best drummer in the world, Kenny blows Dean Castronovo away does that mean Im slammin Journey It has nothing to do with Styx. Why do you think Kenny filled in for Todd? He's the best take it that way

I never said he wasn't a good drummer. I was only making a point. He is obviously a great drummer or he wouldn't be that "hired gun" in demand. When you say someone blows away another, that's a pretty strong statement. I am not a Styx sheep, but I do think Todd is a very good drummer as well. But c'mon now, it's not like we're comparing him to Mike Mangini. In that case, blows away would be a fair statement.

On a side note... Fogerty still kicks ass. Does that dude ever age???
