Absolute Eye: Contemplative Photography and Modern Art
The past year has been busy with several musical projects which have broadened my playing, added to what few chops I have, and got me back to the woodshed to up my game, including scratching the surface with that Chaffee book (yes, THAT one). Here’s some of what I’ve been doing over the past year.
In September 2018, I was offered the drum chair in a workshop jazz orchestra, which was I’d never done before. I didn’t play in stage bands in high school, as I was already playing clubs in hardcore bands and wasn’t interested in reading or jazz at the time, so this was a fun experience. I also got to “sit in” on my first-ever symphonic gig this past spring on snare drum.
The noise/punk/jazz group, Tetsuo, that I’ve played with for the past couple of years played some gigs over the past year. Sadly, the band has stopped for the time being as our guitarist has moved back home to Japan.
