Inside Out: Exploring the Mental Aspects of Drumming

Rating:
Summary: A different kind of drum book...
Review: Most drum books contain lessons, or, at least some lessons and some text. This book is all text, and some "life lessons". Billy Ward gives you the up-front and frank discussion maybe-nobody-ever-gave-you about "making it", practicing, "the business", playing with a clear head (and maybe not so clear band-mates) and more.

I don't think this book will change your drumming life, BUT, if you don't usually read stuff like this I feel sure you will find it interesting. Certainly a lot of little tid-bits of knowledge from the game of "life" as experienced by a musician and drummer who has been in the game a while.

Whay not five stars? Not really sure. I fee like something is missing, but I don;t really know what it is...
