He was trained to be a Micheal Anthony replacement. Solid bass lines with no bells and whistles is pretty inevitable.

Mike added a bit more than that. His stage antics were fun without being over the top, and his backing vocals were a key part of the band's sound. No offense to Wolfie who's a fine musician in his own right, but the last time I saw them with Dave a couple of years ago, you could certainly tell something was missing.

Agreed on the backing vocals. His high harmony was a key part of the sound.
