best drum fill ever

1
I'm obsessed with the first drum fill in Achille's Last Stand, off of Presence. It's right after the first verse. In the midst of this absurd groove, Bonham does what sounds like a press roll around the kit. It's so fast it sounds like rushing water, and we're well into the song when it happens... it's almost subtle, it's so unexpected - and I swear it's technically impossible. The thought of it gives me goosebumps.

There are others, but this is my personal favorite.

Having nothing to do with if I like these bands or not, but -

Dave Grohl's fill at the open of "Tourette's" is one of my favorite fills of all time.

Josh Freese's fill in one of the last choruses of a Perfect Circle's "Judith" where the best way i can explain it is, he switches from 6/8 to a double time 4/4

there's millions all slipping my mind.

Oh yeah i second the "Neil" comment above.

Hum - Stars. Bridging the intro to the verse! A classic.

Don Caballero - Haven't Lived Afro Pop. There's a slew of real gems at the end.

Chavez - Peeled Out Too Late (off Gone Glimmering). When they rehash the intro at about the 2 minute mark... the drums are nice! Good fills!

There's so much more!

I could have been a contender...
