1. Cobus Potgieter
Cobus Potgieter is one of South Africa's biggest internet sensations.  He's never had any drumming lessons (other than listening to music and  watching drumming videos). He has a huge admiration and respect for the  craft that is drumming and has a desire to be the best he can possibly  be. He doesn't play the drums or practice because he has to, he plays  the drums because he can't help it. He independently produces all his  videos and records, sets up, edits, mixes, masters, performs in and  uploads his own videos on YouTube. He used to record videos by borrowing  cameras and lighting equipment when he started making videos. Nowadays  (thanks to sponsorships) he has his own recording and lighting  equipment. 
2. Travis Barker
Travis Barker is quickly becoming one of the more  influential musicians on the Rock scene today. Travis began studying  drums and taking lessons at the age of four. He studied with a jazz  teacher and was exposed to many different styles of music. While in High  School, Travis played in the jazz ensemble and marching band. He  subsequently gained much experience performing at regional competitions  and festivals. His senior year, Travis passed up drum corps tryouts for  touring with a rock band. He gained more experience as a rock drummer in  a few early bands such as Feeble, The Suicide Machines, and The  Aquabats. In 1998, Travis replaced Blink 182's first  drummer and came to the band’s rescue at one show by learning over  twenty songs in just a few hours and performing with them later that  evening. Travis quickly became a much respected and popular member of  the band and solidified his position as the timekeeper with his  professional attitude, rhythmic skills and talent.
