    Not sure how many 'old' people are here, but over 20+ years ago (more like 30, don't remember, that's how old I am) he revolutioned the drums' world with Back to Basic. Lots of 'young' drummers don't know it. History is important :-)

    I have to say it, Dave Weckl is on the Top25, right, more like Top10 at the very least, because he is number one for me. His approach on the drums and his skills to teach clearly important stuff that no one else really talking about is beyond words. Did you ever heard his chops, or him talking about eating salad and stay away from drugs, drinking? That's Dave Weckl, first class drummer and one of the best, if not the best. And he is backing everything with breathtaking chops, sound, performance, and the wow factor is not him doing stick trick but more like playing music in an incredible narural way, such high level, it makes everything look so easy like a walk in the park. But it's not easy at all. I will soon create my own UA-cam channel to show to everybody how this guy influence is tremendous to me. With UA-cam, it's a gift to see him and watch him play in HD, over and over again. There is no mystery left. Dave Weckl is just amazing.

Also, the "Heads Up" solo was the best overall solo I've ever heard. You have been a blessing to millions of people. Thank you for sharing your gift with all of us.

    When I was younger, a great drummer friend of mine, before we ever played together would use our mouths to jam - he'd do the drums and I would be the colors/percussion. We knew right then that we had something special between us. We later played together in various projects and our own drums only recordings. So yeah - sing! And maybe even do like us, get a custom van, hang out at a park or graveyard, throw on some Brand X and jam with some fellas on whatever stuff you have in the van - drum heads, bottles etc. Best of times.

    Since I started playing, I've sung drums.
    When I started, I was nine years old, and I learned by copying what I heard on the radio (whatever was popular in 1986!).
    I never gave it any thought until I had played a huge battle of the bands when I was in high school. There was a guitar rig issue which resulted in me playing a drum solo in front of my high school, and the high school of the neighboring city... But I was a huge ham back then, had no fear, and I loved soloing...
    After the performance, a bunch of people asked me how I was able to play that solo. Was is rehearsed? If not, how could I just make it up?
    It was at that point I realized that I sang everything to myself.
    I was seventeen, at that point. High school junior in 1994. It was also the night I knew what it felt like to be a rockstar. I take for granted that I was able to experience such support at such a young age, to be regarded by classmates, local musicians, and adults in the community as a "great" drummer. Because I sang my drum parts..

    Yeah love the new flat ride. I saw the NAMM viseo that Dom Famularo did where he featured it (and another 18" protoype based on the cymbal Roy Haynes played on Now He Sings, Now He Sobs). I like the name "Urban Flat Ride." I think it's the perfect name for that model. Loved the sound of the prototype on the Akoustic Band Live set. The problem I've always had with flats is that they can be so one dimensional. Lots of tick but really nothing else. I picked up two over the last couple years that go against that, a K Light Flat (I've since seen Bill Stewart and Marcus Gilmore playing that model) and a K Constantinople flat. You can dig in, crash them, everything you can do with a regular ride but they don't overpower. This new Sabian seems to have those same qualities. Love it.
