Rants of a professional drummer and recording engineer.
I’m a “hired gun” today at the Park City Arts Festival. I play with a rock band on the big stage at the top of main street at noon.
I’ve played gigs with this band off and on for years, though I haven’t played with them lately. They sent me a set of CDs for me to review the tunes we’re playing. I checked the tunes out and made my notes for the gig so I’d be fairly prepared. Then they sent me a revised list and 3/4 of the tunes on the new list weren’t on the CDs and I haven’t heard them. So now, rather than being somewhat prepared I’m going into 3/4 of the gig with NO idea what I’m playing.
Sounds fun.

I'm a professional drummer, sound engineer and golf freak. Some thoughts that leak out of my cranium end up here. Some material here may not be suitable for children or idiots who don't have a sense of humor.
