Dora and bootsy: intro much better this week. The open hi-hats were in the correct places and felt much more controlled. The groove in the first bar of the second line still needs some work. Go through it with out the track making sure you are reading the snare drum and bass drum part properly. 


For you: you can play this well to the track. Your challenge this week us go through section B and D without the track really making sure you are reading the notes super carefully.
