[@joetoe9207]

I like him way more than Vinnie with Sting. I think he brings more of the 'rock' that Stewart brought with the aggressive playing. Stings drummer selection is pretty, pretty good...

[@ferd1572]

what was wrong with colaiuta?

[@joetoe9207]

@@ferd1572 Hi, ha, to say anything negative about Colaiuta is heresy. I'm a massive fan. I just think Josh F. brings a rock vibe for this music (basically Police) in a way I relate to more than Vinnie does. That's it. I know Vinnie drummed on most of Sting's albums and he mastered all genres. For those Police songs (e.g., Synchronicity I) though, I liked how Josh pushed the song - reminded me a bit of Stewart who was so great on those tunes. That's it. No slag to Vinnie who could eat almost anyone for lunch.

[@ferd1572]

​@@joetoe9207 I personally prefer Manu Katche, but no denying Vinnie is an amazing drummer

[@pal4597]

Vinnie wasn't just about chips. He was incredibly creative. Josh is awesome though. Foo Fighters are lucky to have him.

[@mastertemple8369]

​@@ferd1572 Vinnie is awesome..
