Hey, here it is. Friday 27th May's top five. It's my consolidated list of all things awesome this week. Here we go;
1) Video of the week;
Cory Henry - Tribute to Melvin Crisp.
I've only just discovered Cory henry, he's pretty damn good. There's also some great sessions on YouTube, google that shit.
2) Gig of the week;
The Lab Saturday, 28th May, Northampton. This is a really interesting concept and the Fanny Pack DJ's are spinning too, get involved.
3) Quote of the week;
"The latest you can be is five minutes early." - Unknown
I heard this on a podcast, but I can't remember exactly who said it. I think it was someone that served in the US Navy, which makes sense. I consider punctuality to be very important, it's more of a point that I do what I say I will, wether that's meet at a specific time, or do a particular task, whatever really. Letting people down is not acceptable, we're all busy, It's disrespectful to keep people waiting.
"An unreliable man is not much of a man at all." Unknown (sorry).
4) Article of the week;
Phys Ed: An Easy Fix For Tennis Elbow?
I got this from Tim Ferriss (surprise, surprise), but I know a lot of drummers suffer with this and we could have found a cure. I bet you or someone you know has this problem, help them out and send them the link.
5) Thing of the week;
Use one of these to work out any sores, aches and pains. I regularly get back strain from DJ'ing (basically craning over the decks for a few hours). All you have to do is find the sore/strained muscle and lay on the lacrosse ball. Use google (some good info here) to find techniques on specific areas of pain, and don't hurt yourself. I'm not a doctor.
See you next week,
Josh.
