an inspiring feeling

an inspiring feeling occurred and i will explain. i put a post on craigslist wanting to play drums with anyone who is interested last week and i got many responses. one response led to a 2 hour session today. what an experience! we played songs they wrote. no jams. just song after song! for the first time tonight i was playing and i actually heard and understood a transition. while playing i had to count, remember what measure and think about how to fill. the second time it was played, i nailed it. amazing to hear the language for the first time. realize it. know it! KICK ITS ASS!

for the last 4 months i have been playing with a few people and it has been great. something i realized i am lacking is structure. the musicians i played with today are structured, experienced and want to work hard to play. that is what i want! if i played with a tight crew for 6 months, i would be shredding! that day will come very soon.

i know what i have to do......
