182 – Taking the stairs: A lesson in music and life

Within every day there are lessons that we can take away and apply them to our drumming, career, success, etc. A prime example:  Last weekend, my friend and I trekked all around New York city to find a Barnes and Noble. Why? To grab a few copies of the June 2016 edition of Drum! Magazine. (They did a 2-page piece on me in that edition and I wanted a few copies for my records). What was even more amazing than picking up the magazine was the life lesson and realization I had while I was there.

It all started with a broken escalator…
