No...   Too much other new stuff to cram into the morning. But it's always a good experience. Generally I tend to focus too much on my mistakes, and gloss over the songs that went well, b/c "they were easy anyway."   So it's hard for me to not get frustrated w/ my playing on a regular basis. On the bright side, that attitude helps me to strive harder to be a better player b/c, to be quite honest, I'm the weakest member of the band.  So I tend to work harder.

I'm sure we will get back to this song again, tho. And by then I'll be that much better to be able to play it. We did one today, called "Victory in Jesus" which (I think) is a hymn that we have done in a marvelous swing style. The first time we played it, late last year maybe, I really struggled w/ it, getting a neat swing pattern but keeping it at a fast enough tempo. It was much easier today, w/ both the tempo and the swing! I put it on the gospel kit, which has a tambo for the ride cymbal sound--that was a lot of fun, and got everyone clapping along.
