Today was a great day in that I got to spend three separate periods of time with my instrument. This is all good news in my quest for more consistency in my routine as I prepare to be back onstage again after the holidays.
With just the idea of playing Pat Metheny’s “Soul Cowboy” blues head and seeing where it takes me, I manage to get almost an hour of solid practice in, and take breaks periodically to discuss what I’m thinking, and how I might adjust my approach in realtime to get more out of the session.
