Exactly!! I really do not like learning things if I can't apply them musically. That's the goals with the lessons I present on YouTube and my website. I want to show concepts/ideas that can be put into a musical context! Thanks for checking it out Andrew!!!

Cool man. I've always dug your playing as I felt you were a more 'artful' player to come out of the Drum off camp. These are the kinds of exercises that make sense to me, too....

Thanks man. I really appreciate it. The Drum Off was just a contest and while I am honored that I "won" it (no one really wins) , I do not want to solely be known as that guy. There's definitely more to life than the Drum Off lol. However, thanks for checking it out. There are a bunch of other lessons on my YouTube page as well!

Yeah no problem. I was simply commenting on how your "depth" of playing was more apparent than a lot of the other guys....Peace
