This is my first attempt at any sort of pre-save or email campaign. I know some of you have put your email in at my website but after two years, I still haven’t ever sent anything… I don’t have any good plans for that yet but I made this totally random video and I thought it would be a good excuse to learn how to use the show.co promotion page. I’m mostly just curious to see if anyone plays along and actually reads the descriptions I write. You certainly can ignore this whole idea.. but, the video does reveal some pretty important and serious secrets of mine so…

Back to the JAMS! Stewart Copeland – you already know how I feel. He wasn’t always perfect, especially in these early recordings but he was always musical and most importantly to me, so unique. I love trying to lock in with his, push the beat, style and creative choices. Having a singer and songwriter like Sting as part of the deal makes The Police, legendary. Next To You is a pretty early song in their writing and in the beginning, fast seemed to be high on the priority list. This seemed fine with Stewart because the live versions of this song are WAY faster :)

I’m 15 years old and I want to be a professional musician when I grow up. I try to play lots of instruments but the one that I feel most at home on is a drum set. I would say the only thing that impresses me more than a great musician is a great songwriter so I also spend some of my time trying to learn the magic of songwriting. I thought it would help me keep focused on music if I started a drum series where I learned a new song every couple of weeks. After 5 years, it’s now turned into a larger musical search but my goal hasn’t changed. Hopefully, I will keep doing it, keep loving music and keep getting better.
