Re: Foot tapping and timing-The story of Pinnochio
Does your body or head sway to the beat? You probably do something when you're playing, even just breathing differently, especially if you feel the beat internally without using your feet. No reason to wear glasses if your vision is 20/20. We have two people in our group with excellent timing and when things start to go south, we all just look at their feet and still our own. That's one thing you can do. And listening is crucial, if the person you're listening to has the beat nailed down. That kind of sensitivity to a beat is rare, but if you have it or can cultivate it, it's a gift that keeps giving.
