Thanks! I've started the list of drums in the first post.

[Da' Messenger]

Mandaree and Northern Cree! kind of rhymes! eh!

[farmer ned]

Of all time

1994 Whitefish Jrs. FOR ALL TIME!

[Iowa_Boy]

Red Earth. Stoney Park, Chiniki Lake, Porcupine Singers, REd Bull, Eagle Whistle, etc. That northern list is a little too recent (although they are all great drums). Any list without Blacklodge is not a list. What they did in the 1980s was like the Beatles.

So how are you going to do this?
By vote?

[Dakota Sandz]

I'm not to keen on the northern list...

NC should be on there, Mandaree MUST be on there.....

but where are the other old skool drums that paved the way like Badlands, Fort Kipp, Porcupine, Ironwood...all songs that people still sing today...
Also your contemporary drums that started it all like Chinniki lake, Red Nation, Assinabione JR's, Sioux Assinabione...these were all GREAT drums in the late 70's and 80's.
then your contemporary drums that changed the game by the way contemp is sung like..eyabay, Stoney park, Blacklodge, Blackstone,whitefish jr's..ect.

I think you need to have seperate brackets for ol skool, contemp, straight and southern.

I'm depending on you all to help build the list! Keep them coming.

[Paul G]

So how are you going to do this?
By vote?

64 Drums, we'll put them each into brackets and vote on each matchup until we get to an overall winner!

32 Southern
32 Northern

That's the plan. Any other suggestions?

The plan is to have 2 sides - Northern and Southern. We can try to group the Northerns into those groupings.
