| Use all the fingers, thumbs included, both sides of the board, move, play in position, crossed, uncrossed, above, below...I got short stubby fingers. My left hand plays like an upright bass, my right hand floats and stabs. Unless of course I'm doing something else. I have used my nose on the 12th st... |

| It seems when I pick up the Stick it shouts composition, so usually as soon as I find all the notes I'm hearing and rhythm I turn on the ZOOM H2 and get it in my "notebook". That's to say what I hear I can't play. THEN comes the warm-ups, chordal stretches, etc. So, yeah, I pick up the Sti... |
