Whiplash

• Burned 367 calories on the exercise bike for 1/2 hour.
• Determined after feedback from others that to do a solo, it should be the Silver's book delineates: indeed change patterns dictated by the key of the CHORD AND DO NOT JUST PLAY THE PATTERNS IN THE KEY OF THE SONG. I got lucky, it seems, playing the patterns in the key of the song and not the key(s) of the chord(s) in "Over the Rainbow" because apparently the chords in that particular song are mostly in one key!
• Worked on improvising to "The Way You Look Tonight."
• Saw the movie "Whiplash" (ironically with my son) and . . . WOW......
I found it to be intense, inspiring, and thought provoking about the world of making music.
