Friday

My shiny new stuff is sitting in the house but I won't get to use it until next Tuesday. I have two rehearsals on Tuesday so I'll have a chance to hear how things sound in context.

Piano:

30 Minutes Bergonzi - On The Brink. Five permutations at slow tempos 60-66bpm. My fingers need to catch up with my brain for this

I'm having the ultimate day of drum geek-ery today:

My new issue of Modern Drummer arived in the post, shortly followed by the four DVD set of Modern Drummer Festival 2008. I also spent about five hours completely dismantling, thoroughly cleaning and replacing the heads on my drum kit. Hopefully it will have been worth all the work when I get to play them along with my new cymbals on Tuesday!
