Has this happened to you with practicing a song?
Usually when I learn a song I can either get it or I try to figure it out, break it down, slow it down til I get it. If I can't touch I song yet, I wait and try another time.
I guess being that this is the first Rush song I'm trying to learn, "Armor and Sword", and since there is more going on, it's the first time that this has happened to me.
I first played through the song, got through it without all the fills, rolls, cymbals. Just the simple basic (if you will) beats. Then I started adding more fills, cymbals, etc. in between to sound closer to the original song. And there are 2 parts in the song where I used to play it through it no problem. Started adding things and it was like my brain erased those two parts, that I played before. I can't get it. And it's driving me crazy because I know that this has to be stored somewhere in my brain. If I did it before I should be able to play it again right? Does this happen to anyone else?
