Lesson Comments
Bring Me To Life is by far the most challenging song Cam has worked on so far, but he did an excellent job rising to the challenge. He's hearing and identifying a lot of the components of the groove on his own, and asking great questions when he isn't sure about something. He still struggles with the bass drum/hi-hat independence, but he made great progress today working through some related exercises and playing along to the track several times. His final take demonstrated significant improvement compared to his first. Paradise City was a breeze for him to figure out, but he clearly enjoyed it very much and did a great job picking up on the hits and character of the drum part.
