Learn It > Technically, can you play it RIGHT NOW? 🥁

Leave > Give your brain time to process the material 🧠

Retrieve it > Was it just *accessible* yesterday because of the reps, or is it now instantly *retrievable*? 👀

lWhen you’re opening for guys like @bradpaisley t’s so easy to fall into the trap of trying to impress—which is why I try to keep one word in mind: REACT.

Listen to what’s happening and respond, it won’t steer you wrong 🙌🏽

Thanks for being awesome, @scheelsarena

PRACTICING MORE ≠ GETTING BETTER - If you give yourself 4 hours to learn something, you’re gonna take the full 4 hours 😅

Shorten that time by being very specific about what exactly is requires for what you want and then CUT. THE . FAT. 🥩

@bradpaisley @jake.worthington and @lacikayebooth are gonna tear it up for Fargo, ND at the @scheelsarena - Come honky tonk!
