3. Portnoy is one of the best drummers I know of, too

even if using just a fraction of that set!

7. The best drummers I've played with....

have always used a very basic set: kick, snare, hi-hat, ride, crash, and 3 toms at most. Portnoy may be a very fine drummer, but listen to Steve Gadd or Jimmy Crawford.
