    He has all the chops in the world, but he NEVER overplays. He is a one man band. His solos are like compositions. I'm more of a Bonham, Ringo, Levon Helm guy, but there's something about Weckl's playing that stands out amongst every other drummer. He's truly a genius, and his playing has more integrity than probably anyone in the world.

      Oddly enough it was that surgical precision that draw criticism from others early in his career. Nobody ever questioned his technical ability but it was often said his style was cold and mechanical compared to others (Vinnie, Gadd, Chambers, etc). It amazed me then and even more now that he still has critics.

    The 1st Electric Band album in the 80's changed my life as a drummer. Every musician I know was talking about this new kid that was doing things on the kit that seemed impossible at the time. It was hard to comprehend what you were hearing. When it came time for The Master Plan every musician on earth knew who he was. I love to listen to many drummers but I always go back to Dave and his immense sense if pocket and groove. Just an incredible body of fabulous work.

He didn't say specifically but he did say that he has never played with a drummer like Vinnie before. He did say that Steve Ferrone had the best pocket though.
