50th Birthday Present

Recently bought a Brady 5.5 x 14 jarrah ply snare. Oh my goodness - it's unbelievable (obviously this won't mean anything to most readers of this blog...)


P.S. I used this snare at our first Heavy Dexters (jazz funk) gig at Wheatsheaf in Chinnor on Sat 20th.

Drumming

Time wasting this afternoon trying different tunings on snare drum - medium/high, then high...

Jazz drumming Sunday evening

I am taking my drum kit down to the Old Anchor pub in Abingdon (Oxfordshire) (St Helen's Wharf, OX14 5EN) for a jazz jam tomorrow night, Sunday August 8th, 8.30pm onwards. Can't say what it will be like, but should be fun.

I promise there will actually be some philosophy on this blog shortly...
