This week, guest curator Jon Loree, drummer for Tantric, joins me to craft a mixtape filled with the most underrated rock drummers of all time. 

Now, the word “underrated” means something a little different to everyone else, so let’s see where our list stands against yours! We also talk about the band’s slot on the Summer of ‘99 Cruise, featuring Creed, Daughtry, 3 Doors Down, Buckcherry, Tonic, Vertical Horizon, Fuel, The Verve Pipe, Nine Days, Jimmie’s Chicken Shack and much more!
