In 2013 I was lucky to study with Dave Weckl for a couple of days whilst he was in Melbourne. I don't know what I respect more. The fact that he was so genuine and giving of his time to help others become better drummers and musicians, or that he shows through his own playing that we can always get better. Every few years I look at a new clip of his and am always impressed by how he's still improved, yet he has set such a high bar since the 80's. He really is one of the greats, and a top bloke!

Dave have never met a drummer like you, you are and you will be my best drummer of all times

There's a specific skill Dave has mastered beyond any other drummer in my opinion and I would define it as "orchestration". No one has yet reached this level of refinement in using the whole kit as if it was an orchestra. Every groove, every fill sounds as if it was meticulously crafted by a composer. I have no idea if this skill comes out of raw talent or if it can be somehow developed (maybe a mix of the two). Whichever the case Thank you Dave for keeping us students busy for 40 years! (I do have cursed sometimes in your direction while studying, but in an italian friendly way ;-)

Hi, I remember when I was young I bought my first instructional video from Mr. Weckl. I was so excited to learn so many powerful techniques in the Back To Basic video that I couldn't stop watching it every day. Thank you Mr. Weckl for giving us so much joy and hope in drums. Greetings from Venezuela.

Dave's technique is the most beautifully elastic I've ever heard.

It changed my life!! I am now 50 and I just smiled the whole way through!!! Thank you for being a certified GOAT and a great teacher!!

There are certainly a lot of amazing drummers in the world. But DW is just so very special. Yes he has the pure chops, to a lot of learning drummers they think that is what makes him special but isnt. What makes him so unbelieveably special is his musicality, sense of rhythm, time and flow and immense vocabulary. In my opinion, he is the most mesmerizing and enjoyable drummer to listen to of all time.

Every beat you play feels like it comes from the soul, and it's clear that you pour your heart into your music. Your dedication to your craft, the energy you bring to each performance, and your unique ability to make complex rhythms feel so effortless is truly inspiring. You’ve not only mastered the art of drumming, but you’ve also elevated it to a whole new level.

Dave uses a lot of unique sounding cymbals. My favorite Jazz/Fusion drummer.

Mr. Weckl, you are quite arguably the best of a generation drummer, and in very fine and very rare company. Absolute top shelf, have been for decades. And you keep getting better! Thank you.
