Steely Dan - Aja (drum solo transcription!)
I’ve wanted to learn Steve Gadd’s drum solo on Aja for mannnyyyy years and finally took the time to do it. His phrasing and movement around the kit is so inspiring. And let’s not forget, he’s playing the entire thing in tandem with Wayne Shorter 🫡🫡

Caveman Yabo(v10) ✅
Finished a bucket list project this weekend. Caveman took about 6 sessions, 3 months of training, and 2 completely worn out shoes. Shout out to everyone who gave me tips and tricks along the way ❤️

The Yogi / Youth Body Explosion V10/11 ✅
All the moves live up to the name. Powerful, bendy, intimidating. It wrecked me. I wondered if it’d ever go at times. Kept showing up, kept training the movement and last Saturday I hit the crux move on the first go.
Ty to MF DOOM for the inspo.
✨ a note on the ultra-contested line and grade ✨
It seems everybody has an opinion, pros v. joes, joes v. joes, guide books v. apps, guide book v. guide book, app v. app, social media v. crag banter, etc. I decided to stick to a line I found challenging and not worry about the rest. Ultimately, I feel the distinctions between the lines are blurred and getting lost to time.
2024 was a blast. Here are some of my fav animals I hung with.
