The wise words of Lao Tsu
*This too will pass * When I let go of what I am, I become what I might be * When you realize that all things change, there is nothing you will try to hold on to * Being deeply loved by someone gives you strength, while loving someone deeply gives you courage

Drumming it up in Yichang
This weekend turned out to be a busy one. Yesterday a fantastic time at Nettie's, today, I hit the music store again for a bit of drumming. This is a picture of myself and Mr Zhu. He is so friendly and it's great to hang out with him and also play a bit of drums. He teaches drums himself so I'm going to try and talk him into a drumming duet for fun. I used to love playing drum duets with my drum teacher in Australia...you basically just keep time while the other person shows off and keep swapping back and forth...it's a great way to learn and have fun :-)
Ok..this is a little bit of footage (below) of me just trying to remember how to make a rock beat FEEL really good, nothing flash, just grooving...the footage is on it's side so you have to turn your computer on it's side or lie down to watch it...but I think...maybe just listen :-)
It's also great to see that little drum dens are the same the world over, small dark semi soundproofed rooms for the avid drummer to skulk away into and learn their trade (lol)
