Because he is the most rippin' drummer in the world! Best drummer of this generation at least! Rush is really famous as well as neil
According to most of the drum magazines out there, he is, in fact, the best drummer ever. He is currently performing with the Canadian rock band Rush.
No, you may be thinking of John Rutsey, who was the first drummer with Rush. He died in 2008. But the current drummer, Neil Peart, has been with the band since 1974 and is very much alive and well.
Kind of a weird question to be asking since half of Dragonforce`s songs are done with a drum machine and Neil Peart (drummerr of Rush) is on of the best technical drummers in the world. The answer is rush`s drummer.
Statistically, Mike Mangini is one of the fastest known drummmers and has various world records to his name. However, speed alone cannot define a good drummer. Compositiion also matters and there are others like Joey Jordison of Slipknot fame who are not only fast but also extremely creative in their drumming. Travis Barker of Blink 182 is another breathtaking drummer and his remix video of "Crank That" justifies that.
Bernard "Buddy" Rich (September 30, 1917 - April 2, 1987) was an American jazz drummer and bandleader. Rich was billed as "the world's greatest drummer" and was known for his virtuosic technique, power, groove, and speed.

Pete Best and Richard Starkey (Ringo Starr) Against George Martin's better judgement, Pete Best was replaced with Ringo Starr as drummer on the 4th of Spetember, 1962. Jimmy Nicol was a stand in drummer when Ringo was hospitalised.
