Dr Drums said:he's like the ideal drummer and has it all by the book, and that's exectly his problem.
He doesnt have something really speacial, he's groove and feel are very mainstream, he's so unoriginal. Yet, no doubt he's a hell of a drummer and between the 10th best drummers 2day. At least.

They're are too glorified and used by their endorsements as THE DRUM REFERENCE. Too technical and they are all playing fusion which make feel each one sound more and more similar. But it's like always very personal, it's just music that doesn't move me (maybe at the exception of Gadd).

Anchein Vouivra said:I believe Dave Dicenso could be one of the only punk rock drummer..............just teasing, but he's emerged from the punk scene and he's sooooooooo good and versatile in many styles, but I won't cut the Dave Weckl thread on him.
