Getting a tuned head
I’m not a procrastinator. I just take my time getting around to doing things. It’s not the same.
Case in point: changing skins. A technical term, with little biological connotation. It’s what happens to drums, when they’re properly cared for. Back some months ago (a little voice wants me to substitute years, but it wasn’t that long) I went with the kid to the music store, and we purchased a set of heads. The skins, as we drummers call them. And then a time of reflection took place (nothing to do with mirrors, though). It wasn’t the lack of a key (I’d bought one, just to be sure of having one on hand). In fact, a couple did get done, but the job wasn’t rushed.
