I played my drum for Him, pa rum pum pum pum ...

Fun family get together last night at Sister Mary Agnes' house. The annual tree theme was The 12 Days of Christmas, which got us to thinking - who are the 12 drummers drumming? Possibilities:
  1. Ringo Starr (Beatles)
  2. Buddy Rich (jazz)
  3. Keith Moon (The Who)
  4. John Bonham (Led Zeppelin)
  5. Roy Haynes (jazz)
  6. Ginger Baker (Cream)
  7. Phil Collins (Genesis)
  8. Meg White (White Stripes)
  9. Gene Krupa (jazz)
  10. Sheila E (Prince & the Revolution)
  11. Mick Fleetwood (Fleetwood Mac)
  12. Don Henley (Eagles)
More:Spencer Dryden (Jefferson Airplane), Nigel Olsson (Elton John), Grady Tate (jazz), Jaimoe/Butch Trucks (Allman Brothers), Peter York (Monkees), Mickey Hart (Grateful Dead), Philly Joe Jones (jazz), Shelly Manne (jazz), John Densmore (Doors), Connie Kay (jazz), Tommy Lee (Motley Crue), Max Weinberg (E Street Band), Airto Moriera (jazz), Tito Puente (Latin), Max Roach (jazz), Alex Van Halen (Van Halen), Charlie Watts (Rolling Stones), Chick Webb (jazz), Lennie White (Chick Corea)

Next up, 11 pipers piping? After Ian Anderson (Jethro Tull), where does one go?
