6/6Made this blog post, talked to Mr. Leduc about next year, and then worked on the song in 7/4 mainly focusing on writing a chorus riff that was also in 7/41 hr This was a best practice because we discussed the future of this class, which I will be in next year (at least in school of rock) and I also bettered myself as a guitarist really working on being able to count and write something in 7/4 easily.
 6/7 I had some inspiration for the song Im working on in School of Rock so I decided to record and get out some of my ideas so I would remember them 1 hr This was a best practice because I was using recording to get things out of my head and into a physical/ digital environment which is the best way to remember creative things.
 6/8 I was having trouble coming up with new ideas either to add to a song or create a new one, so after doing a bit of mixing of the 7/4 song I played through schism and pneuma by tool. Now I know pretty much how to play pneuma and schism, although in pneuma theres one part where the guitar and bass are doing completely different things and it’s hard to time it. 1 hr Im not sure if this was a best practice, I was off task from my goal, but I was also getting better at guitar, but I leave it up to you.
 6/9 I decided to work on the solo for the song in School of Rock. I found a really cool effect, and so I was messing around with what I could do with that 1 hrThis is a best practice because I was practicing soloing and getting better at improvising,

6/6 We played through and worked on the bridge for our song, as well as just get more reps through our song so Simon can get a bit more of a idea of what he is doing1 hr This is a best practice because we communicated and used creativity to work and hammer out more parts of the song.
 6/7 We made a rough recording of the song, and finished the spacey bit/bridge/solo so Simon knows that we are doing 1 hr This is a best practice because we communicated and played through the song, and so had to use our creativity to add on to the song.
 6/8 Since Simon wasn’t here and also the last day for seniors, we decided to have a goof day and play through random things we had already came up with, we played through spaghetti song which is a bit of a meme song. Ben Anderson also stopped in for a little bit to play drums. We didn’t get a lot done but we couldn’t really work on our song, since most of the things we need to work on have to do with drums. 1 hr I don’t think this is a best practice, we got very little done and it was really just a joke day in terms of what we did.
 6/9Simon and Griffin weren’t here for different reasons, so we finished this blog post and then decided to help Mr. Leduc with preparing for next year.  1 hr this was a best practice because we were helping prepare for next year so that we could make the future as best as possible.
