Ash Wednesday

So this week i got to watch my performance from the Fat Sam's gig and the rest of the class analyzed it for the whole band so we could get some fairly decent feedback that might help me with my future gigs.... I guess it helped a wee bit... Just have to wait till the next gig to find out.

On Saturday my uncle invited me up with my snare drum and a set of brushes. He was recording his own CD and was wanting to use a brushed snare sound for one of the songs he had. I've never really used brushes for a song before so i thought it would be a good experience to actually use them (and hopefully well), So in the end we kept the recording i did and it will be on the record once it's had its final mix which should be around the summer time. And i think this experience has helped add to my range of techniques and genres which is good for my goal to become a session musician.
