It's summer!
It's summer and we are practicing. All five of us. Maybe seven? I don't know. We do grabs twice around, though. It's exciting. Or, well, perhaps exciting isn't the correct word. Intimate isn't either, although it's closer. It is just a few of us and some drums, and a jolly good time is had by all.
It's kind of strange, because we aren't practicing towards any specific performance - indeed, we have too few people to do any sort of performance - so it becomes a sort of philisophical question as to what, in the end, we are practicing for. Life, perhaps? The honing of a particular skill, despite or because of the fact that there is no concrete reason to do so. Nevertheless, regardless of the conundrum, it's actually rather enjoyable just hanging out and having a good time with a few good friends. Yay for summer practices!
