So yesterday, I sat behind the drums and couldn't play anything. I had no ideas. My hands and feet weren't working. I had no inspiration and no passion for playing anything.
But today, just now, I sat down and everything clicked. My hands were working great (for me), everything coming out really clean. I had ideas for days, even played some stuff I've never played before. If not for the fact I live in an apartment and playing is pretty much always an imposition on my neighbors, I would have never stopped. I could have gone on for hours.
We all have good and bad days with our instrument. The lows of some are greater than the highs of others, but it's all relative; nobody likes a bad day and we all live for the good ones.
This thread is where you can check-in with how your playing is going today. You can vent and express frustration over a bad day. And you can shine on about your good one. Most of all, maybe we can offer each other words of encouragement to remind those who check in with a bad day that it can all turn around tomorrow.
8-Mile checking in with a GOOD day today.
