Man! I’m all over the place! “Creative!” is a word I’d like to hear instead of “SUCK!”

You already **are** helping the project, my friend! Your and the others in this thread’s advice are preparing this 56 year old “Opa” to sit behind his set and rock and roll again.

I’m “feeling it” **dnooman** and it feels good, it really feels good.

A little bit of history: When I was little, I had a really bad stuttering problem until my Dad, a jazz drummer, taught: me: how: to: speak: in: rhythm:

Whatever I wanted to say, would come out of my mouth with :every: beat: on: the: snare:!

Thanks very much for all of y’all’s help!
