You do well to practice as much as you do and to make this record of your routines. I hope the headache passes quickly and you’re playing again soon. Best wishes.

I went to the workshop this evening
1H30 of playing together with other musicians
we were only 5 + 2 teachers
1 flute , one drummer , 2 classic guitars and me
The bass player was working and the pianist never came back
the other group playing right after us has way more people participating !
We mostly worked on Handbags and gladrags
we spend the first part of the workshop working on music theory explaining the tempo of the song , then we played !
I ve learned that song with the JG app , but theres no wi fi at school so I cant use it
I played using only my memory ( thats an easy song , lucky me )
We tried Karma police only once and not played the whole song ( but almost )
No time for Bowie 
it was a bit hard for this evening
I had headaches and felt dizzy … had to sit sometimes
