<p>Soooooo yeah. &nbsp;In the past I never enjoyed musicals. &nbsp;I just wanted the story without everyone stopping to BURST INTO SONG! &nbsp;I would literally sit there and get irritated whenever someone just had to sing their feelings instead of saying them in a more dramatic style. &nbsp;</p>
<p>Well, guess what? &nbsp;I am doing a total 180 degree on that. &nbsp;I have, by sort of accident, fallen into the musical world by being hired to perform at several high profile musicals of late. &nbsp;I've done them in the past. &nbsp;They were usually…</p><span class="read-more pdf__hide"><a href="/blog/blog/6111595/falling-into-the-musical-world">Read more</a></span></div>

<p>Hello everyone! &nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Just a few words about being busy. &nbsp;I am right now, about to be very busy and am very thankful for it! &nbsp;I only have a few openings left for piano or drum students. &nbsp;Yes. &nbsp;Really this is no fib. &nbsp;I have 16 private drum students, 3 up at Oregon Episcopal, and 9 in the Drum Line that I direct at Rex Putnam HS. &nbsp;I only say that because sometimes I think some teachers say they are truly full in their schedule when they are not. &nbsp;So yes....I only have a couple openings left and of course…</p><span class="read-more pdf__hide"><a href="/blog/blog/6111594/being-busy-being-thankful-for-being-busy">Read more</a></span></div>

<p>I wanted to spew about something I have noticed throughout my performing and teacher career that most don't think about. &nbsp;It's musician karma and the generosity of percussionists and drummers. &nbsp;I have been the recipient of percussionist "luv" lately. &nbsp;And it's feels great! &nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>LET ME JUST SAY PERCUSSIONIST GENEROSITY IS BIG....VERY BIG. &nbsp;And, yes, I am specifically pointing out drummers because I have also noticed that over the years, drummers have huge hearts and tend to pay it forward.</strong></p>

<p>Hi Everyone!</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>This has been long overdue, my own website that ends in dot.com. &nbsp;Very exciting. &nbsp;In this space, I will be posting musings of a drummer and teacher as well as any articles I've written (publishing or unpublished). &nbsp;I welcome comments and encourage reading, and I thank you in advance for your attention to my general spewings about drumming, musicianship, and music in general. &nbsp;</p>
