My short term target is to be able to learn to play Green day- Basket case fully with just the instrumental and no vocals. In the video of my rehearsal I had slipped up a few times and that's because I was used to listening to when the vocalist says certain parts of the song before playing the drum fills instead of counting the beats so I had to try and count the bars on the spot and try to remember what bars the fills come in. I will try to do this for two weeks time.
By the end of the term I will try to be able to play both Basket case and Papa roach- Still Swingin perfectly with no faults. This is because these are my Ensemble and Solo pieces I will be playing and I need to be able to play them as accurately as possible. This will be achievable as I already know both of these songs, it's just counting the bars and counting when things come in. I can already do this with Still Swingin but some of the fills are a bit difficult so I will practice them a bit more to make sure I can play them correctly and at speed.
