Back for the Thursday night blues jam this week. Played the third set on the house kit for the first time. Usually Mike Avery brings his set, but he didn't have time to pick it up at home before the jam. This set is a mid-grade Pearl kit, nothing special. Thank goodness I had brought my own snare drum. The big news of the night was that house guitar player Tom Yates had just won the title of "King of the Blues" at Guitar Centers NE competition in Natick. I've had the pleasure of playing drums behind Tom many times at this jam. He's a fine blues player and singer. I wish I could have been at the contest.
