Up town funk sounded really nice this week. 

Smooth: practice the intro fill especially for next week. Have a listen to the original if you forget how the first fill sounds. 

Make sure you are familiar with the folks on the first page. 

The hi-hat needs to be a little quieter to give it the smooth slick feel.

Warm up: keep working on the free bound ex for next week. (Drop the stick and let it bounce) this is looking much much better than before H/T. 

Start using your RLBB sticking as a fill. Now you are comfortable with it see if you can split the rightward left hand up, by moving your right hand around the kit. 

Window seat: practice the fill at the top if p2 as we did in lessons. Start simple and then experiment playing the fill around the kit. 

Max 05/11/18

Warm up: 8th and 16th note combinations around the kit. 

My name is; excellent reading this week! Practice the timing of the transitions go through slowly as we did in the lesson. Count out loud focusing on keeping the tempo secure! 

Jamie 05/11/18

Warm up: one bar of groove and then 1 bar of 8th  notes around the drums. 

Another one bites the dust: listen through and see if you can count and tap the groove along with the track! Take care you count your self in correctly. This coming together really nicely. 

Tom 05/11/18

Regulation R: fill in bar 6 to polish fur next week. Take your time and slow down if you need to. Excellent reading and playing. This week. 

Price 05/11/18

Warm up 2's and 4's sounding good. Now add a bass drum on the 1:4 note! 

Groove was better this week. Now you need to the 1/8th note while you play (1 and 2 and 3 and 4 and) etc. 

James G 05/11/18

Warm up: single stroke ex's make sure you alternate right and left hand lead. 

Le freak: focus on the fill in the first time bar. See if you can nemorise for next week. 

Play to the track. Watch for the groove changes. 

Keep running come together. 

Start working on Brown eyed girl. Listen through and have a go at the chart.
