Is there a website that has all the interviews from him in one place?

Does anyone know when his Vic Firth stick is coming out?
Since when did he move to Ludwig? I know he suppposedly left Gretsch but I thought no official switch had been made... great to see another legend repping them Paistes though

In fact, I love reading his interviews because it almost makes me feel guilty about that modern, short-attention-span way of thinking where everything has to be SENSATIONAL! Drumming, in terms of the "drumming community" has almost become an athletic event where people get to see a new record being broken or hot licks nobody's seen before. It bores the hell out of me. He is very deep in his concept of music and the "Guitar Center Drum Off" and "Gospel Chops" stuff really is wrecking the overall concept. If you play a gig with actual professional musicians, nobody wants to hear that stuff. I totally get where he's coming from.
Should I be suspicious about there not being any Ludwig logo? Id heard some conjecture about him moving to other drums....
I saw Vinnie tonight with Herbie Hancock. FWIW, he is still using Ludwig. There was mic stand blocking my view of the logo on the bass drum head but I'm pretty sure it was the small script Ludwig logo. Otherwise in the stage lights, I could see the reflection of the distinctive keystone badges on the toms.The link not being there is rather interesting...
I'll be seeing him tonight in Buffalo. I was hoping for Yamaha. I don't dig his Ludwig sound at all...
I always thought his Yamaha sound sounded exactly like everyone else's (Gadd, Weckl, Robinson) Yamaha sound.
