Thank you kindly for creating these pieces and sharing your gifts. If you ever wake up feeling unsure of your life choices or question your talent, please take it from a humble old civilian across the Atlantic......you need not question either.

Tomorrow i will continue on this and add the ghost notes on the snare! You have a very deep feel to play, i would love to see what kind of fills you use to make it dynamicly! I dont mean any complicated 1 bar or two bar fills, i mean... You know to get sometimes out of the loop and back in. Respect Max!
