Wow that clip was great ....... Love you Vinnie !

First vid of Vinnie on Heuer´s? Sounds great as usual...

WTF is happening???
Vinnie is on fire here...did the new drums inspire him THAT much?
Whatever the reason is, I'm loving it!

Watch in full screen and play close attention to the reaction of the background singer >>>

Those Heuer drums [toms] do sound really great. Great tonal range and great punch, somewhat Yamaha-ish with a little more bottom end. My guess is that Vinnie is gonna stay with this brand. I still don't fanboy about the Paiste's except for that gorgeous China and splashes. I think the ride is just at 'garage band' position to make room for the rh crash.

[gretsch-o-rama]

Yeah I hear those drums being somewhere between Yamaha and Ludwig...not my thing but oh well.

I think his new rig is a HUGE improvement over the Ludwig stuff. Still digging the Paiste's too!

He's obviously feeling the new gear and getting inspired- he's playing so much stuff that the band needs to step things up a bit now.

[Rodge]

I have trouble with those Paiste, specialy with that bell on the ride, kills my ears...

[Christopher]

Wow. He is burning on those videos! New drum love? Let's hope the honeymoon lasts a long time.

I dig the Paistes. That bell sound is almost a requirement to play Police songs.

Man… he is still so fast. See him going up to his crashes at almost light speed? The man is 58 years old. Unreal.
