Being a drum teacher is the best thing in the world. Despite the inevitable hangover, I was teaching first thing and seeing a first-time drummer pick up a groove, and the thrill they get from it all clicking...yeah, it's just great, really great. It's like inducting somebody into a secret club called YOU ARE NOW A DRUMMER.
Then went and did it all again somewhere else, longer session this time - my new mate Stu (who I met at a comedy show recently) and his daughter have signed up to my crash course and it was just brilliant, brilliant fun.
Evening had a house show around my mate Paul's place - he's a really good mate. Nice dinner and catch up. Show was stumbling, but the audience he managed to attract were lovely and it worked. Did the happy ending to the show, which they loved because they were rooting for me to succeed, but I don't feel great about myself at the moment and it didn't feel natural.
