With the increase of late notices/no show lessons, just a friendly reminder a week’s notice is required. Exceptions can be made for medical/personal emergencies and morning notice for illness to avoid paying for a missed lesson. Thank you!

In case of poor driving conditions, there will be a zero cancellation fee emplaced for today. Safe travels! ⛈️

Severe thunderstorm watch was just issued by Environment Canada along the 401 corridor from Cobourg to Morrisburg area. This is my target for today.

The warm front is sitting west to east just on top of me here in Wi******er, so we may actually see the watch expanded at some point to include more of the region.

Expecting some strong severe thunderstorms around Perth to Smiths Falls to Kingston to Brockville this afternoon. Heading out there soon.

Ronald Belford "Bon" Scott (9 July 1946 – 19 February 1980) was an Australian singer and songwriter. He was the lead vocalist and lyricist of the hard rock band AC/DC from 1974 until his death in 1980.

Born in Forfar in Angus, Scotland, Scott spent his early years in Kirriemuir. He moved to Australia with his family in 1952 at the age of six, living in Melbourne for four years before settling in Fremantle, Western Australia.

With AC/DC Scott performed on the band's first seven albums: High Voltage (1975, Australian only release), T.N.T. (1975, Australian only release), High Voltage (1976, first international release), Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap (1976, not released until 1981 in the United States), Let There Be Rock (1977), Powerage (1978), Highway to Hell (1979).

Scott formed his first band, the Spektors, in 1964 and became the band's drummer and occasional lead vocalist. He performed in several other bands, including the Valentines and Fraternity, before replacing original lead singer Dave Evans for AC/DC in 1974. AC/DC's popularity grew throughout the 1970s, initially in Australia, and then internationally. Their 1979 album Highway to Hell reached the top 20 in the United States, and the band seemed on the verge of a commercial breakthrough. However, on 19 February 1980, Scott died after a night out in London with former musician and alleged drug dealer Alistair Kinnear. AC/DC briefly considered disbanding, but the group recruited vocalist Brian Johnson of the British glam rock band Geordie. AC/DC's subsequent album, Back in Black, was released only five months later, and was a tribute to Scott. It went on to become the second-best-selling album of all time.

In the July 2004 issue of Classic Rock, Scott was rated as number one in a list of the "100 Greatest Frontmen of All Time". Hit Parader ranked Scott as fifth on their 2006 list of the 100 Greatest Heavy Metal Vocalists of all time.

Congrats to the last two students of the month!

Timmy took April’s student of the month! 🎹
Every week, Timmy came to his lessons on time and ready to learn. When playing pieces and warmups, Timmy improved significantly using the correct finger numbers on his notes. On top, he’s been playing more challenging pieces with sharps and flats like O Canada! His eagerness to learn shines like the sun! ☀️

Cameron took May’s student of the month! 🎹
Each lesson, Cameron made practice goals to improve his pieces for an upcoming talent show and recital. His detail with practice and ambition to learn challenging pieces like Coldplay’s Viva La Vida (4 flats and syncopation!) was incredible and inspiring! ✊

Way to go! 🤩👏
