I feel like someone who gets to school, hears what everyone else did to study for a test, and realizes I didn't study enough.  Maybe I should withdraw mine.  |

If it makes you feel any better mine was just the first thing that came to mind when I hit record and sat behind the drums. I did two takes and left it at that. |

It Does make me feel better.  When I did it, I just decided to do it, put it on, played two takes, and picked one. Total elapsed time, with getting the mic out about 5 minutes. [But, the amount of effort Will be reflected in the final product. ] |

Frank,
Don't worry about it. This was all about groovin'. It wasn't a chop fest. I worked on mine some last night and how much chops can you put into a funk beat? It is all about feel. This one was fun. Why worry about it? Sometimes, less is best anyway.
I love this rhythm. This one was really fun for me. I will record my final product tonight. I will try to do it in two or three takes too.

Don't feel bad, I am sure there are drummers on here that will smoke my &^%,  but it was fun. DONE!!!  Nutty |

David Crigger is going to contribute a solo as well, so I'm waiting on his as well.
That's awesome. David is just such an incredible player. |

Bart - what's the outlook for posting the final product? When everyone who has asked for more time gets their submission to me ... and I get the time to mix the final product. |

Thanks to the date extension that allowed my kids to start summer vacation, I finally had a chance to sit down and try a few takes. I'll get it out tonight FWIW.

When you hear my clip, you'll also hear how long I took to *mic* the kit. About - 15 seconds.  With - yeah, baby - a Radio Shack mic. I Should be in the running for worst tone of the bunch. Yeah. |

I've been mixing the solos for the last few days; I'm about half-way done. Being that there is video and photos, as well as text labels (showing your name and username) it takes a little longer to make it all nice and pretty. If you are going to send a video in, you need to do so by this weekend as I'm planning to show this on DCTV next week! Don't delay ... get your groove in today! |

I plan to get to mine this evening since I didn't take that gig. 12 bars, right? (or was it 10 bars and two strip joints?) |
