The 100 Most Influencial Drummers Ever!

 This is a a great resource if you get in a trivia contest.... or mix up Bob Hoskins with Phil Collins.  My Multiple Sclerosis. addled brain connected them into Hoskins the actor was a famous rock drummer before becoming a great actor.  I was admiring the composite as one man.  He seemed to possess so much talent in one vessel that it made me more than a little envious. 

I was certain that I'd heard a radio interview with the drummer turned actor but no luck looking him up there.  I turned to looking through this extensive list of drummers and lo and behold there was Phil looking a lot like Bob Hoskins.  

This kind of mistake isn't uncommon for me. Sometimes things you dream take on an aspect of reality and over time you might forget the incident was just a dream.
