This is how I deal with learning any songs/set for any artist or band to hopefully not get so overwhelmed and stressed out to the point of despair! Hope it helps you, and tell me any ways you handle stress and gigs!

This is my number 1 productivity hack, and how I get the most work done, whether it's practising, learning songs, or even making these videos, without burning out! I've been through so many cycles of burning out in my career, and the older I got the worse it was... this is a manageable balance of work without absolutely killing myself!

Try it out and let me know how you get on :-)

This is the #1 piece of advice I was given by Billy Ward back in the day that I wish I had started doing that day. It is the quickest way to become a better musician, so start today (even though it will probably be hard and horrible), and I promise you will thank your future self!

This weeks video coming from a question asked by Steve Chafe:

'Any chance we could do one of your live chats about Clicks and Tracks Live? I think it's a fascinating subject and I would be really keen to hear about your experiences, Especially with Kim and Tom Bailey.'

Whilst I'm not sure I answered your question particularly well, thank you for giving me the inspiration to talk about a subject I deem very important Steve :-) Thanks :-) If you have a question you'd like me to answer, head to www.adrummersguideto.com

A subject close to my heart and just some of the benefits and skills I have learnt through playing with covers bands! They are for sure a huge part of the foundations of my live playing!

Tell me why you do/don't love playing in covers bands? :-)
