Hiya esteemed drummers,
This Saturday, I'm doing a fill-in with some guys I've played with before. They play classic rock/new wave covers from 70s-80s (Petty, Badfinger, Costello, Faces, Plimsouls, etc.) ... pretty cool mix of stuff.
So, what's the problem?
These guys are really good, a level or two better than me, and they've been playing together for like 20 years. Their regular drummer can't make it ... and their previous drummer, a friend of theirs and an acquaintance of mine, died last year ... he was hugely popular with their fans/friends/local music community ... and he was really good, too.
I'm excited and nervous, even though, yes, it's just a bar gig. And I don't know what I'm asking y'all for, maybe just a couple of good vibes.
Thanks for reading this far. I gotta go listen to "Every Picture Tells a Story." Again
Best,
CV
