Thankfully the sun has finally come back to Orange County!!!
My favorite good weather music to listen to is Ska. I actually played drums in a Ska band for a long time. It was so fun backing up horns and a keyboard.
They were pretty heavy for a ska band, but I had a lot of fun playing in that band. After leaving the band I got more into learning the actual way to play traditional ska.
Gil Sharone released "Wicked Beats" a dvd that is part history and part instruction. It's the best ska/reggae instruction I have ever seen and the only thing like it on the market.
In this video he teaches the proper way to play a basic Ska beat. It seems a lot more complicated than it really is, give it a try!
