Peart (a bit heavier) but both are comfortably in my top five

Perhaps he thinks it is a picture of Neil Peart (taken at a funny angle).  The name ByTor2112 certainly suggests a strong admiration for Rush.

For me Neil Peart is the better rock drummer, but Bruford is more versatile and spontaneous - hence his great success in the jazz idiom.  I think Bruford is also more experimental - so overall is probably a better prog drummer.

I thought everyone would get that this was not serious. Apparently I was wrong.

@Greenie, I know it's Bruford there.

Posting in CAPITALS made me think it was serious tbh.

I thought that exactly posting in capitals would make people realize it's not serious.

I know it's become fashionable to dislike Peart and it's a prog sin to say a word against Bruford, but Peart's drumming just speaks to me in a way that Bruford's doesn't. I never get chills from listening to Bruford the way I do during the ending of Limelight or all of Circumstances.

At first I thought these polls were asking who would win in an actual fight.

In that case, definitely Peart. He has been hardened by personal tragedy and could focus that pain into becoming an unstoppable berserker in a fight.

That is actually not a very bad idea, but it wouldn't fit on Prog Polls. It's about music here, right?

I dance to the beat of a different drummer, and that drummer's name is Peart.

I'm sorry, but I can't vote this time.
My heart says N.Peart, but according to logic I must vote fort B.Brufford. Confused
So, no vote for me!
