Individually, I have had to work on my parts and making sure that I know them off by heart. This meant practicing them as often as I could on my own and also listening to the songs throughout the day.
My contribution to the ensemble was helping to organize the set list, our stage presence, and the parts of the songs. I also had to help come up with the other instruments parts such as the guitar solo in “seven nation army” and the different sections in the other songs.
My specific role was t come up with drum parts and to play the drums on the night of the concert.
I learned the material by listening to the songs we had agreed to play and learning the drum parts by ear. I also had help from my college drum tutor on what I could do for my drum solo in “seven nation army”.
