Rod Morgenstein ? He was not teaching at Berklee ?
Jamie Oldaker I saw a clip of him last year, what a pocket !!! :o
Horacio Hernandez : busy touring all over the planet with a lot of different artists, surely some sessions too.
Narada Michael Walden : always producing, playing drums, he was touring with Jeff Beck no so longtime ago, and still doing the Sting Rain Forest stuff, but anyway, I assume that $$$$ wise, all's well for him.
Paul Wertico ?
Danny Gottlieb ?
Bobby Jarzombek : touring a lot !!!

Gottlieb is busy teaching in Florida, Dave Mattacks is still active and very busy, he lives in Boston. All of the other guys are still playing drums and are still visible.

Mike Baird, what does he do with himself these days. I never hear his name mentioned by anybody. has he simply just got too old and he's not booked anymore?

My knee-jerk reaction was Chris Frazier and Robin Dimaggio, but both of them seem to be going strong, albeit below my general radar.

Steve Holley was alway both my unsung hero, and my 'where the hell is he now'. After Paul McCartney and Wings, he played on -easily- my
favorite live album of all time, Joe Cocker Live

DiMaggio is drummer in some TV show ?

What about Russ McKinnon ? He did some cool stuff with ToP.
I know he toured also with the late Joe Cocker.

Mike Baird must be still working, he was in the LA A-List back in the days with Jeff, Los, Vinnie and all those cats, I'm sure he's still working unless if health issue...

If they fall off the big touring performer map, unless they're dead, they probably just got something steady closer to home. Things change for most when they get a family.

Teaching at a university is great as you can work with music on a certain level and you can do whatever you want musically without having to think about the money.

Russ has done Barry Manilow's gig for the past 10 years. There is an article about him in a recent Drumhead magazine.

Chester (and Zoro, I think?) both live here in Nashville. Chester plays straight ahead jazz gigs all over town. I think they both do or did teach lessons at Fork's Drum Shop.
Moderation's all well and good, just don't overdo it.
