A7xDrummer27 Registered: 06/19/08 Loc: Connecticut	Originally Posted By: mhsdlt Do you think that it is fair that I get yelled at for not having correct playing areas on the left side of my tenors when I don't have left peripheral vision? I have have a lazy left eye and a small optic nerve in my left eye which resulted in very poor developement of my left eye as a child. In fact, my left eye didn't really develope at all. Anyway, I don't really think that the drum tech should yell at me for not always having correct playing areas all the time. Has anyone had problems like this? If so, what did you do about them? your playing areas should be muscle memory you just need to teach yourself where they are and then you wont need to worry about seeing them or not _________________________ Trumbull Percussion 07 Contrast - Cymbal Line - WGI PSO Finalist 07 Continuum - Bass Line - MAC Outstanding Percussion 08 Science of Music - Bass Line - WGI PSO Silver Medalist 08 Firebird - Snare Line

mhsdlt Registered: 12/03/06 Loc: Missouri	Thanks for all the motivation everyone, I've gotten used to the playing areas and I don't have to look down anymore. Also, our drum instructer is a lot better of a person this year, and he thinks that I'm one of the best players this year because I memorize my music almost instantaniously. _________________________ Tenors are sweet, what more is there to say?
