I'm with Bosko. What is this reading of which you speak?
There are only three kinds of drummers. Those who can count, and those who can't.

If I could carry my guitar on my bike and play it on the train to work I would, but I can't and I have an hour to fill. This 'reading' stuff occupies my mind during this 'wasted' period and the book I have just finished was the brutally funny 'the war of Don Emanuel's nether parts'. Hysterical.

In light of BSZ's successful completion of his Opus: Death Of The Sun. Just an update with the book I'm reading (Cover featured above somewhere), on the making of Pink Floyd's Dark Side Of the Moon. (Hey, if BSZ's Concept premise were true, there really would be dark sides to the Moon!).
This book is to do with the physical nature of how the songs were put together, and just shows how far recording technology has progressed in 40 years, and how we really are privelleged to live in a time when we all can at least attempt to put together our own visions. Imagine have to cut lengths of tape precisely, and then stick the lengths together to make sound breaks, or loops, or song endings??
We have hit the jackpot, Guys & Gals. Let's keep making music!

I find there are somethings you just wanna learn, that you cant learn in forums or online...I make time, when its something you are interested in the time is there. 

[edit]...and all of this comes from a guy who doesnt/didnt like to read.

Roberto Bolano - The Savage Detectives. Some strange Mexican tale of poetry and driving. It's pretty good.
