Disney Bound

So we’re finally taking that trip that every parent expects at some point. We leave tomorrow night for Disney World. I lived in Orlando for a few years in the mid-90s and couldn’t wait to leave. The heat and tourists were just too much. Now I get to be part of the problem. : )

Hopefully the kids will enjoy it. Be back next Wed. Peace out.

Drumming Prodigy

I’ve been a drummer since 7th grade. Currently I keep my chops by playing in a band for the little guys (1-6th grade) at church. Though it’s definitely more tame than some of the bands I’ve been in previous, it’s still a lot of fun.

My son, James, has a fascination for the drums as most little ones do. Through a little magic on the electronic kit, his first solo comes to life…

Get the QuickTime movie

Update: I removed the embedded movie as it was slowing things down. (Don’t have QuickTime? Download it here.)

Everything he’s playing is real, it’s just on a setting called drum solo which creates about 10 hits for every one actual.
