Hello,

I need a list of at least 500 famous drum players.  I would prefer
famous rock and roll and/or famous country music drum players.

(No classical or Jazz players please)

All I need is a list of names.

I need this to be in a text file, and I need it to be formatted like this:

First name Last name

If the player is famous by a nickname than please add it to the list
after their name (but add a comma first), like this:

First name Last name, Nickname

....And so forth. Note there is no comma between their first and last name.

Just one name per line.

Thanks

I have located so far approximately 250 famous drummers. However,
since it is sometimes quite difficult to differentiate between jazz
and/or classical drummers and others, some are included in this list.

Is this ok with you?

Hi Rainbow, I really need Rock and roll or country drummers. The odd
classical/ jazz one is ok if they are really famous... but the vast
majority (95%+) need to be as specified. Please put the ones you are
unsure of in a seperate list so I know and can research them further
individually if need be, thanks.

Hi zulu500,

At the following site you will find a text file which contains a list
of approximately 560 famous drummers. Since only a small percent of
these drummers fall into the category of jazz drummers, I have
included them in the list.

This file, which is available for you to save and download, will
remain on the server for only 7 days, so please download it as soon as
possible.
