That's Georgia, not George. George Hubley is one letter away from being the drummer for Minutemen and fIREHOSE, though, and he's a great drummer, so you're totally excused.  Not so sure if he's endearing.
 
 And Georgia Hubley is sloppy?  That one surprises me. [/b]

Man, you're on a roll today.  Though if we're going by fashion sense as well as proficiency, I'd challenge anyone to name a drummer worse than Peter Criss.  I mean, a fucking cat???  That was the best he could come up with?

Oops, yes I meant of course Georgia. I don't mean any ill towards Georgia, I love her. She's just one of those drummers that stumbles onto the beat, and it works in a band like YLT. She's done some awesome vocals, and to me that's where she really shines.

After catching 'LoudQUIETloud' again on the dish this weekend I'd say David Lovering from the Pixies.
 
 I always thought Dave Clark was holding back the Five.

 I read that he developed a drinking problem on their reunion tour and occasionally fucked up . . . which is interesting because I thought at the Constitution Hall show I saw in December 04 he was pretty much perfect driving each song.

Frank/Charles said in  NME it was because Lovering's dad just died.
 
 It looked like more than drinking in the movie and they called it a 'substance abuse' that he agreed to curtail.

Any band whose drummer hits the cymbals more than the drums.

Sorry - he just doesn't cut it in that band.  At least not in a live setting.  They could be much better with a better drummer. [/b]
i think he fits them fine.
