This morning I had two workshops. The first was with Colin Woolway, he does the “Drumsense” course books. The second session was with Pete Riley. I really enjoyed them both.

Then I had lunch and after that I sat outside on the bench.

After lunch I went to the Billy Cobham Clinic . He is a fantastic drummer and I learned a lot from his playing and from questions he answered from the audience. He started playing drums when he was 3 years old. I had my first kit when I was three and have been playing since then.

One thing Billy Cobham said which I liked was that “Drums don’t always have to be played loud or fast, but with heart”
