What's wrong with you? No one said he's the best drummer in the world. Don't compare him to metal drummers because he's in a punk band. His solos are pretty good. He's a great drummer and what the fuck would you know about how to play or hold thesticks properly? He can drum a good fucking hundred times better than you with the so called "wrong hold". So fuck off. Just cause he doesn't use extensive fills doesn't mean he sucks.

True, he does have a huge drum set, but he also uses a much smaller kit for his side project Liquid Tension Experiment. I guarantee that if Portnoy was given a drum set the size of Barkers, he would do much more with it, instead of the same roll over and over and then go into a hip hop beat then back into the same roll. Not to sound sarcastic, but if you listen and watch, he does basically the same thing over and over in all of his videos. Not too groundbreaking there.

dude travis is good you cant even compare portnoy and travis there two different styles, of course portnoy is one of the best even tho no one compares to the god neil peart but still travis is amazing for his style

@TheDragondrummer1 Yes, because he's been drumming since he was a kid and achieved great fame for his drumming and never learned how to hold drum sticks correctly... Why don't some people use their brains?!
Wow, this is the reason why retards get famous. People that don't know what talent is telling people they are talented. You obviously don't know anything about drumming like you say. Travis is not even on the same level as Portnoy and others and to include him on any kindof best drummer list is outrage. So go now and worship Justin Beiber and Travis Barker and leave real drumming to the pros.

@TheDragondrummer1 First off, fuck Justin Bieber and fuck people who talk about him 24 hours a day, whether they love him or hate him. I'm tired of hearing about that little shit. Second, I already told you I know some about drumming. What? You think because Mike Portnoy has an epic drum set, that makes him the best? It seems to me that way. I've watched all these videos of drummers people are telling me to check out. The bigger their drum sets, the "better" they are. It's retarded as fuck.

This is what I'm talking about!!! People who know nothing about drums praising Travis Barker! To become a great drummer, you have to of mastered the basics, like holding the sticks correct. I really don't care about Blink182, but they didn't get famous from Travis playing the same 2 or 3 beats on every song. Do something for me....get your drummer friends together and look up Richard Christy and Mike Portnoy. Watch some of their videos and you will see the difference between so called "great" a

@TheDragondrummer1 Just because I said I'm not a drummer doesn't mean I don't know anything about drumming. I do know that Travis is creative, fast, and his fills are pretty impressive. He also has a distinctive drumming style. I've listened to Mike Portnoy and several other drummers that have been mentioned as "OMG THE BEST EVAR" on this video. They're good, but so is Travis. That's what I've been trying to get across ever since I uploaded this video. Your argument is not news to anyone.

Hey Kenny2k08....are you a drummer? Must not be, because any drummer knows that Travis holds his stick incorrectly and has nowhere near the correct technique. Just because someone has been doing something since being a kid doesn't mean they are doing it right. Yes he is famous, but that is because it was in a popular band, his drumming in noway made Blink182 famous, they wrote catchy tunes people can sing along to is why. Plus, just because someone is famous doesn't mean they are automatically

@TheDragondrummer1 No I'm not a drummer but I have friends who play the drums and give Travis credibility for his style. So what if Travis isn't holding them "the correct way"? The way he holds his sticks has obviously been working for him, so who gives a shit? And I disagree with what you said about blink getting famous from "writing catchy tunes". Before Travis, their style was way different and they weren't as popular. Travis joined and the band's style changed and their fame rose greatly.
