Big Weckl announcement?

[Morgenthaler]

Weckl wrote this on his Facebook Page about 32 minutes ago as I type this.

"BIG announcement coming. REALLY big."

- Is anyone in the loop? Steven? Steve?

Yeah, I saw that too and am rather curious...

Maybe a band announcement or something? New solo record?

I think any endorsement changes would be coming waaaay from left field.

Let´s start the "ideas":

- A new Dave Weckl Band reunion.
- A new solo album.

Joking:
- A new cowbell is added to his left side
- Sting touring with 2 drummers now.
- If it is BIG, then he is going to use a 24" bass drum.

I doubt he would jump ship from Yamaha- he's been with them for what has to be 30 years by now (at least).

Maybe he's switching to matched grip.

[Lucas Ives]

It's neither of those. :) But it's neat, I think this community in particular will be interested.

Perhaps Dave is announcing he is
--coming out of the closet
--coming out with a 3rd pr of signature sticks
--coming clean that he has tried to play like Buddy Rich, but just cannot do so
--coming to play at bars and cafes since they require less overhead (venue rent, stage crew, etc)
--coming to the conclusion that Karen Carpenter, a drummer, sold more records than he (by far !!!!!!)
--has developed arthritis and cannot play like he wishes

He is quitting drums to become a singer... He wants to write, direct, and star in his own music videos.

He just heard that Disney has bought Lucasfilm, and is giving up drumming in an unrelated rebellion.

[Morgenthaler]

I'm guessing CCEB original line-up tour and/or album

DWB reunion wouldn't be a big deal to me. I always liked him better playing other people's music (and NOT Jay Oliver's)

[willyz]

Well I know they already did that a while back, though John Patitucci couldn't make all the dates and Victor Wooten subbed...

... I think a trio of Oz Noy, Tom Kennedy, and Dave would be wicked. Maybe he got a big pop gig or something?
