I decided that for tonight (and Saturday’s) drum time (my affectionate name for when I play my drums), I will make a special playlist, containing some of my favorite songs, and some that I haven’t played before.<\/p>\n
I know you’re dying to know, so here’s what I’ll be playing along with for my next two sessions:<\/p>\n
As you can see, quite the eclectic playlist. \u00a0I jump from Taylor Swift to Slipknot to Metallica to Michelle Branch. \u00a0Why? Glad you asked. \u00a0For one, it keeps a drummer versatile to be able to play along to various styles of music. Sure, I could just slam my head to pure metal the entire time I’m playing. \u00a0But there’s only so far that style of music can take you. \u00a0By adding in some pop and mellow tracks, it helps me be improvisational. \u00a0I don’t play those types of tracks note for note, but instead put my own spin on them, making them more fun, but also keeping me on my toes.<\/p>\n
Classics like Dyers Eve and Cemetery Gates are just fun to play. \u00a0Of the 33 songs I put on this playlist, 22 I’ve never played before. So this should be interesting!<\/p>\n
Have any suggestions that I should add? \u00a0I’m not leaving for drum time for 6 more hours, and will gladly take requests. (You’ll just have to trust me that I’ve played your requested song, unless you want to hike into the city at 5pm.)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
