Journey
This is the last bit of fun I get to have for a while. I figured before all of the madness begins I would record one more quick little riff just for fun. Now I have to go back to reality.

I am going to start posting the MP3's with the flash version of the song so that you can download to your iPod or Zune and jam along. If you make a video of yourself playing to one of these songs I would love it if you posted the video in the comment section.
Enjoy!

Drum Free Track Drift – Jason Cross
This is a nice little slow grove that you can sort of get lost in while playing. As always there is three versions. The full track, the metronome track and the drum free track. I hope they help your drum practice.

120bpm Slow Rock Grove Drum Free
I wrote this song this evening. I had a computer problem that prevented me from finishing it any further, but it works for a good drum practice track. I am going to re-record all the parts soon and add the rest of the parts to make the song complete. Hope you enjoy playing to it.
This is the full song with drums. They are syncopated a bit and are at 120bpm.
This is the track with only the metronome:

His Majesty’s Dragon
I just finished reading this e-book on my Kindle and while I was reading I couldn't help but think what the movie might look like. It is probably the first book in a while where it plays out almost like a screenplay. The action sequences would be cool with all of today's CGI special effects. Lets face it, we have not had a good dragon movie in a while. In fact, has there ever been a good dragon movie?
This book is $7.99 in paper and $0.00 on the Kindle. I recommend picking it up either way because overall it was a fun book to read. It would be a crazy world if dragons still roamed the earth and helped us fight our wars.
Click below to get His Majesty's Dragon on your Kindle right now for free. I noticed that some of the free books don't stay free for ever, so make sure that you download it today and read it the next time you get a chance. I for one will be picking up the next books of the series just as soon as I finish reading My Booky Wook by Russell Brand

Another Set of Drum Tracks
This first track is the full band:
This is the track with a metronome through the entire song.
This is the song with no drums or metronome for practice.
These three tracks are a basic rock grove that I created for helping me learn to play the drums. One of the tracks features bass, drums and guitar - another one bass, guitar and metronome, and the other one bass, and guitar only. It is a good way to practice, let me know if it helps any and I will make more like it.

Drum Tracks
This is a simple rock beat that I put down so that I could begin to learn drums. One track is the whole song, the other a song with just a metronome to keep the beat, and last a song with just the bare guitar tracks. I think this sort of practice can really help a begging player like myself learn the drums. Hope they help.
This is the full song:
This is the song no drums with a metronome:
This is the no drums, no metronome track for practice:
