Today, the three of us got together with a new player. Jay, the percussionist with Stone Gato sat in with us, so we can see how things work out together. It was interesting playing with a percussionist -- this was the first time I had really done for any length of time (other than one offs). Both Brett and I had simplify what we were doing to give him room to fit in with the music.
It was some slow going at first. Any time that you're playing with an original band, you have to wing your way through the pieces. Add to that an unusual style like we do, and I didn't envy Jay his work. As we went along, though, he started to warm up to the style, and things started to congeal.
