Here is my drum solo opening up for Chimney Choir at Cafe Paradiso. I'm very grateful to Glenn Chumley for videotaping. I would recommend listening to this on high quality speakers or headphones at a moderately loud volume for the best effect. Hope you enjoy!

Glock Revelation: Learning the Melody
Last night I had a simple and empowering experience. Instead of waiting around, while the Apocalypso Tantric Boys Choir's new track "Preaching to the Choir" was being figured out by James and Eric, I decided to learn the header also, on the Glockenspiel.
It made me realize how much time I have been wasting because I thought of myself only as a drummer. This is a seriously huge revelation. Learning the melody gave me a deeper window into the form, and consequently intimacy and command were both amplified.
I might even get to play the Glock on the outro. YES!
Then after rehearsal you can really let your hair down.
