Bottom line...do whatever it takes to get your sound from the mission control center we call snare drum!

When you go public, then you are selling you...and the snare sound is the fullest expression of this.
It should be very personal.

If he really said that, I think I'm gonna hurl! Don't get me wrong, I love Yamaha drums, but, I hate corporate speak!

Anyone notice the older Vinnie gets the more he looks like Fred Fintstone? Not that I'm aging gracefully, just sayin'. Which reminds me of something I read to the effect that "the older Mick Jagger gets, the more he looks like Don Knotts.

OK, I'll show myself out!
