Week of August 25 2019

 A lazy weekend. Now stretching, exercising and resting. I need to be in shape for the upcoming week. 
​

1. Wednesday, the trio with my good friends Jim and Rory. I'm really looking forward to trying out the swing ideas from my coach. Namely, modifying the swing pattern with an accent on beats 2 and 4. Keeping the tempo from dragging was an issue. 
2. Thursday, Annette jam. 
   
3. Friday, Improv trio with Gordon and William. Bring out the synths. 
   
4. Sunday, New Orleans trio with Harry Forbes and his son Zak. Harry and I have know each other for 47 years. 
   
5. Final touches on the fall teaching schedule, with light teaching duties this final week of summer.
