Komagome, Tokyo - Sakura and Trial Drumming Lesson

ブログ

Today, I went to Komagome, Tokyo, for a trial lesson to learn drumming. I also saw some cherry blossoms outside the station.

Time goes by fast (I’m about to turn 58 years old in April), and I don’t want to waste any more time waiting to do things I’ve always wanted to do. I’ve always wanted to learn drumming - so today, I went to Komagome for a trial drumming lesson.

Upon arrival, I saw some cherry blossoms on the north side of Komagome Station.

The trial drumming lesson was a lot of fun. About 30 minutes into it, I already played a simple beat along to the Beatles’ “Free As A Bird”. I felt happy and also a little proud.
