Well, then :)
However, I'm playing guitar and bass so it's not completely new to me (the theory of course).

At least on the last part I can agree 100% ;)

Trying to nail Steve Gadd linear 32nds. Although it requires me to improve my weaker hand playing by a lot!

Incase you didn't know Steve Gadd is possibly one of the worlds best session drummers, and has performed with many huge people such as Paul Simon and was on tour with Eric Clapton last time I checked.


Also preparing for a Listening Music Exam on friday :O
