Once again, Juanky's rules:

 

Simple rules. This is the nomination thread. Any member who chooses to use his/her nominations get to select two artists to be put up for voting at a later time. It is suggested that you try not to nominate the same artist more than once, since nothing special will be given to those mentioned twice, but it is not forbidden and is perfectly acceptable.

Richard Christy (Iced Earth)

Lars Ulrich (Metallica)

John Bonham (Led Zeppelin)

Dave Grohl (Nirvana)

Hmm... interesting. Tito was a timbalero, not a drummer. But, since there's no separate thread for Percussionists, I'll allow it.

Carter Beauford (DMB)

Mitch Mitchell (Hendrix)

All right this is it...
