The rift between longtime Pantera bandmates Phil Anselmo and Vinnie Paul has been well documented, but that hasn't kept Anselmo from offering olive branches to open communication in the media over the years.

One of the more popular Christmas songs this time of year is 'The Little Drummer Boy'. And after hearing it about 200 times over the past couple weeks, I got to thinking about all the unsung heroes of rock and roll, the drummers!
