One of my earliest memories of seeing Dave Weckl play drums is when he played with Chick Corea and John Pattitucci at The Maintenance Shop in Ames, IA. I wasn't actually at this concert, but I remember salivating when I saw it on PBS. I was a senior in high school (1988) and using electronic drums in a single set with acoustic drums was just beginning to gain popularity. I also remember how I loved seeing the use of a floor tom to the left of the hi-hat. On youtube, there are two parts of this concert posted. I hope the third part gets posted someday. FOUND the rest of the drum solo song! Here!
I do know I have this concert on a VHS tape which could be converted to digital and uploaded. This is my favorite part of the two videos below.
