So, Last Weds I played amazingly with the Fred Radke band. Tonight, however, I did not. As I reviewed my workout schedule, it was at least partially to blame. I'd done my heavy day yesterday, (because I'd fallen almost 2 weeks behind). I'm supposed to do it the day after the rehearsal (game). And, today I did my Tom House-style range of motion workout. I'm not supposed to do that till next Monday. And my body did not want to play drums tonight. Not at all. Unfortunately, instead of holding back and just phoning it in to preserve my joints, etc, I gave too much, so my hands are feeling pretty lousy tonight. They felt lousy during the rehearsal too. Double bass stuff barely worked in rehearsal. With all these solos, I think I'm going to have to modify the set I use there so it gives more consistent feedback. So sad, too bad. I'm back at it tomorrow!
