I started playing drums in 97. I had this on vhs. I remember reading an article in modern drummer how he didn’t want to be married because he dedicated all his time to drumming. Dude is one of the all time greats.
Gracias por el video!!..siempre he querido practicarlo!!..Ahora mismo voy a empezar!!..Siga poniendo videos...Muchas gracias y bendiciones desde Puerto Rico!!🇵🇷
Virgil gave a clinic back in the 90s at a location of the now defunct MARS music stores and the guys who set up the kit he was playing did a horrible job and the whole kit fell apart while he's playing, stands collapsed, the double pedal came off the bass drum and it was just a wreck but he kept playing best he could. Never got pissed off. Just rolled with it. Then took questions for an hour and signed autographs. Just a real professional. Outstanding drummer obviously but showed his true colors as a man that day. Huge fan here.
Vintage Virg! Always wanted to watch this video but was a poor teen drummer back in the '90s and couldn't afford to buy it where I lived. The material is awesome here. Seems there was a strain of vintage Weckl in his playing at the time. Hope Virgil does another instructional video one of these days!
