Drum solo at GPCHS


Hey everyone,

I've been busy recovering from a high school band trip that we took to Havana, Cuba. It was a great experience! We went to lots of music schools and we were exposed to a wide variety of music.

But yeah anyway, I did my last drum solo at my high school a week ago and I would appreciate it if you guys checked it out.


Thanks,
Tom

Dude, that was very impressive.

A wide variety or beats, times and techniques executed really well. Are you considering a career as a session musician?

Thanks man.

I'm not really sure. I've completed high school and I was accepted into a music college in Toronto, but I've decided that I'm going to take a year off before I start the music program there.

Thanks,

Tom,

For a yong man really great stuff - great technique few observations more than critisism - Take more time with your toms to much over compensating on the snare - have more confidence in your ability you know your stuff just pull back your shoulders and let reip don't be so confined - rely also on groove as apposed to just rudements - as I say great stuff and really for young chap you are well on your way / Phil.
