Dora and bootsy:
Play through the first three bars of this piece slowly making sure your bass drum pattern is 100% accurate! Your performance of this piece is really good but there are small errors in the exact bass drum and snare phrases.
Also re-cap the groove at section b: remember it starts with a snare and crash at the start!
Below is the fill you played to the improvisation ex today. Have some fun experimenting with this over the next week.
