Today was awesome because I made up music!
My ol' buddy Bill is in town for the weekend and he brought along his djembe. After running through a few cover songs on guitar with Bill providing the beat I took a break. Bill continued tapping, slapping and rolling on the top of his hand-carved drum. I started to recognize a pattern and began inserting chords as he beat. Wouldn't you know it, we all of the sudden had a little groove going.
I'm so new to this music game every day is like a new experience for me. And today was the first time I really experienced "making it up as you go." Pretty awesome.
(What made your day awesome? Tell me in the comments section below. I'd love to hear about it!)
