As You All Know I’m a KEEN RuNNer >>> So Here’s a Few More ThouGhts oN WHY DruMMing & RuNNing are PERFECT PARTNERS!!! >>>
In the UK at the MoMent it is VERY HOT!!! >>> Being oN the SuNNy South Coast that MeaNs H O T ! ! ! >>>
As I Blog, My WoMaN “Panther Kitten” is oN the BeaCh Waiting for Me to GET OFF THE NET & JOIN HER!!!! So I better Get My Idea Out to You NOW! >>
I RaN oN Friday Morning oN My Usual Forest “Assault Coarse”!!! >>> What struck Me was THIS……
It is NEVER EASY!!!
& NEW Gear CaN Re~Inspire YOU!!!
…..2 SuNdays Ago was FATHERS DAY here iN the UK & PaNther, Charlie GIANT & AliCe PalaCe got Me a NEW NIKE Running T-Shirt! >>> This is a Super COOL piece of Running Kit! >>> It’s “Dri-Fit” Technology iN BlaCk with the Word “RUN” on the Chest & WiCked Lime GreeN Detailing on the BaCk whiCh is all Very Cyber & GrooVy!!!>>> It Feels GREAT & Does it’s Job…..IT KEEPS YOU COOL!!!
This Made Me want to Get STRAIGHT Out There & R U N! ! ! ! ! >>>
EVEN this Last Friday whiCh was WELL HOT eVeN at 9am I was STILL Inspired to GET OUT THERE & GET ON WITH IT! >>>
I have to Say 40 MiNutes Later I Arrived baCk BRIGHT RED in the FaCe & Sweating Like a PIG but it WAS Worth it for the ENORMOUS Sense of Achievement!!!!
NEW GEAR Really CAN INSPIRE!!!
To PARALLEL this I Just ReCently got a 8″ Rack Tom to Match the Rest of My YAMAHA Endorsment Kit! >>> Making the Toms 8,10,12, 14 Floor with Legs & a 16 Floor with Legs >>>
I’ve NEVER had this MANY MATCHING Tom Toms IN My ENTIRE Career!!!! >>> I’M LOVING IT!!! >>>
The 8″ Tom is So Beautiful & SeXy, with a BriGht AttaCk & a Round, Resonant HiGh PitCh…..It has TOTALLY INSPIRED ME to Play this Kit MUCH MORE for My Own ENJOYMENT!!! >>> GOOD DESIGN WORK YAMAHA!!! >>> WICKED!!!! >>>
I’m EveN Using the YAMAHA , once a Week, to Rehearse My BRAND NEW LIVE EuropeaN Cool JazZ Act “BURST” !!!!>>>
WATCH THIS SPACE for More Gig & Internet News oN this AMAZING NEW JAZZ TRIO!!!! (!)
You Heard it Fisrt RiGht HERE FOLKS, on DRUMMERS PARADISE !!! >>>
So…..Inexpensive New Kit caN Re~Inspire You to Get oN that Drum Kit or Get OUT THERE & RUN! >>>
As I MeNtioNed Earlier iN this Blog thouGh “It Is NEVER EASY” !!! >>>
Whether it is RuNNing Up that 3rd Steep Hill iN the Boiling HEAT or trying to NAIL that Beast of a Drum Pattern it’s Just the Same ThiNg!!! >>>
It IS NEVER EASY……….BUT it IS ALWAYS WORTH IT!!!!! >>>>
The Final Destination of SELF~DISCIPLINE iN ANY Endevour that You LOVE is >>> RESULTS!!! >>> & that is ALWAYS WORTH the “Pain” & Hard Work!!!!!>>>
So Get Re~Inspired & Get oN that Drum Kit, Get On those ConGas, Get Out There & Get RUNNING >>> As the Nike Ads Used to Say “JUST DO IT!”
…..You’ll be GLAD You Did!
Stay Fit, Stay Active & Keep oN DRUMMING,
PeAcE & PasSioN,
