Monday is Drumday

Well maybe #Drumday can be a new thing on Hive to go with the various themed guitar days we have. Yesterday was the first time in ages I had played with my swing group who will be doing some busking soon. I took along my drum pad to see how it could work with that. We were in the garden, but the drums have a rechargeable battery and were loud enough. I only know some basic patterns and fills, so did what I could and people seemed to like it.

We are due to busk this weekend, so I need to practice. For this video I was playing along to a recording of my duo @swing47 at Balstock in 2019. When you do this you realise how variable our timing was then. Anyway, it was fun to try. I can work on some other songs this week.

I am sure there must be more drummers on Hive, so I will be looking out for them. We have a community we can use.

Rock on!
