Dave Weckl's PHX Kit Run-Through at Blue Note Tokyo

Legendary Yamaha Artist Dave Weckl takes us backstage at the Blue Note in Tokyo, Japan! Playing his PHX kit with a setup featuring 22"x18" bass drum, 10", 12", 14", and 16" toms, plus his 30th anniversary signature snare, Dave gives us a look at the drums that power his iconic sound. Watch him get ready to hit the stage with Bill Evans and James Genus!

Dave, for pure listening to solo drums i would rather listen to you, than anyone. Reason? Musicality, creative choices and voicing, and freaking chops! Big fan sir!

[drummerby]

He is without a doubt one of the most solid and incredible drummers . Amazing Dave!!

[djshad]

Wow. Just wow.
Effortless groove and fill master...
Unlike all these over kicking over licking over playing mechanical sport drummers on the web who are so pleased with showcasing themselves every chance they get. Love listening to drummers who understand and know how to play music.
Keep lighting that torch Dave.
Us real drummers know whos really leading the way.

[DRUMJOCK]

My man Davie from the c neck a bad man 🎉

[nick-nolan]

Does anyone know what shure mic he uses for toms?

[jirehwong]

He never seems to overplay. Id liken dave to a polyglot who speaks many languages and when its time to speak he picks the language and speaks with authority and eloquence.

Other drummers are likened to polyglots who in one sentence attempt to fit in as many languages into one sentence which is an unnatural way of speaking.
