Got a girl crush on: Maureen “Moe” Tucker of The Velvet Underground

“Tucker’s style of playing was unconventional. She played standing up rather than seated (for easier access to the bass drum), using a simplified drum kit of tom toms, a snare drum and an upturned bass drum, playing with mallets rather than drumsticks. She rarely used cymbals; she claimed that since she felt the purpose of a drummer was simply to "keep time,” cymbals were unnecessary for this purpose and drowned out the other instruments" [ Wikipedia ]
