He is the top of the top. Beside his extreme musical and technical skills, for me, what makes him the best is that somehow I never ever see him hesitating even for a split second. Each and every single hit is 120% confident and powerful. His playing tells me and makes me feel that what he does it has to happen excactly that way it actually happens. There is no question.

Vinnie, if you're reading this, take it from me. I tried everything to shed pounds until I landed on the answer -- intermittent fasting. That is an unfortunate name for simply choosing a time of day and not eating anything after that. It works! You don't have to change what you eat (although I recommend throwing in a giant salad every day). Keep all you eating to within a 7 hour period -- 8 hours if you must. It's like adding space to a groove. It's 3/4 time -- 1 beat of eating, 2 beats of fasting. Man does your body like that rhythm. We are creatures of occasional eating. It is MUCH harder to eat selectively than to fast entirely. I really believe this is the only way.

Not sure what brands he's playing (like at that 0:20 mark). whomever was filming this apparently owned the cheapest camera available....but, I digress (which I didn't think was possible in 2019-2020)...but, I digress.

I’m a sound engineer, I’ve recorded Vinnie a fair amount. I can tell you from experience he can sight read anything, including tempo changes. While all the other musicians go into the control room to listen to a new song and make notes on the charts, Vinnie goes out to smoke. Someone grabs him when it’s time to record again, he comes in and plays through the chart cold better than everyone else who just listened and made notes. He is truly on another level from all other drummers. It’s an honor and a pleasure to record him. He never needs a second take in the 20 years I’ve been doing sessions with him.

There’s an interview of Vinnie where he said that the reason he wanted to be a studio musician was because he wanted to be heard not seen. I also heard him on a clinic that he turned down offers to do instructional videos from DCI coz he felt that the market back then (probably late 80s) is already saturated w/ drum videos. He was more interested to do a record though.
