This is the official Dave Weckl Group - and it's the best place for musicians of every musical genre to connect online.

Dave is a world-renowned drummer who is best known for his work with Chick Corea and his own group, the Dave Weckl Band. You can learn more about him on his official web site, www.daveweckl.com .

This group was created by Dave's organization, which also produces a monthly online newsletter entitled "Behind the Kit." The newsletter includes tips on drumming technique, practicing and products, plus updates on Dave's busy playing and recording schedule.

You can view the current newsletter at www.davewecklnews.com . There is an e-mail sign up page where you can register to receive e-mails alerting you when the monthly newsletter has been posted.

Fire away! We hope you enjoy this group, and don't be surprised if Dave ("weckldrums") or his staff ("forsteven2") joins in on the discussion.

Enjoy.
