Summer Plan

SUMMER PLAN

What I need to work on over summer is: 

I need to drum to backing tracks and not the songs and use my metronome to keep time if I need to. I am learning where all the fills are and I will write notation if I need to remember. I will do this for all 4/5 songs and my solo if I do it. This will allow me to spend my lesson time more productively with others and not waste my time learning alone which is something I could do at home. This will also allow me to feel more confident with my playing because I know that I have learnt it and will not make many mistakes.

My main three goals over summer are:

1. Play along to all my songs backing tracks accurately and in time.
2. Write notation to remember fills, breaks and any changes in the songs if I can't remember when they are.
3. Learn all of the 4/5 songs.

The five song I will perform:

1. 'Californiacation'
2. 'What I got'
3. 'Song 2'
4. 'Sleep Now In The Fire'
5. 'Dani California', 'Scar Tissue', 'Purple Stain' solo?

How I will achieve my goals over summer:

I will play at least 30 minutes to an hour every day which I already do in school so it will be even easier in summer with free days. I will end up a much more confident drummer if I have some dedicated time on my drums this summer. This will help me next year when I am doing my 15 minute performance because I will of known my drumming parts for 6 months before.
