Of course, it depends on the room. In a problematic room often one mic can be placed more successfully than two. And depends on whether you're planning to use the mic as an "effect", i.e., smashed with a Distressor, or for natural capture of the kit and its' interaction with the room, in which case, the placement of your (two) stereo mics becomes paramount.
Though I like a 57 on hardly anything, I really like them as room mics smashed with a 1176/660 type thing.
Cheers,
