Your part for “587” is smooth as butter!  Please when you practice this song, use at least two fingers on your right hand.  You will get tired so quick and never be able to play at the right speed if you try to cheat with only your thumb.  I suggest that when you practice, you try just the right hand part until you feel super comfortable with it.

For 587, you are playing the part beautifully.  The thing I want you to pay SUPER close attention to is the rhythm of your part, and the tempo of the song.  Sometimes we can play the part too fast, or the song too slow, so just try to play along to the song.  I also want to mention that for a couple of parts, the guitar and keyboard arent playing with you, so we are very much relying on you to know where in the song you change parts.

Bennett

Your rhythm is SO crazy good!  I’m blown away how fast you got the part to 587.  When you are practicing, try to play for stamina.  What I mean is try to play at the right speed as long as you can without slowing down.  It’s the bane of all drummers, and especially hard not to “gas out” in this song – which is weird because it’s particularly fast.  Your right hand with the brush is going to get fatigues quick, but wow do you sound great with it already.
