I'm an aspiring musician, and I'm doing pretty well at mastering my instrument, but the one thing I sometimes struggle with is keeping a steady tempo, especially when I get tired and begin to lose coordination. Do you have any advice on how to develop good tempo control? Thanks!

I know this is Ask Bermuda.. but I think I can answer this question too (because I'm a semi-professional drummer (in a band) and I also play guitar and keyboards). There's only one answer to this question:
Practice, Practice, Practice, Practice and Practice.
You should try to play along with music or play on a metronome. But my own experience (which is actually 14 years at this moment) tells me to practice every day..
Anyway, I wish you good luck with playing music :choon:

Well, I'm not as experienced as all you guys, but I have learned that practice doesn't make perfect, it's perfect practice makes perfect.

Metrenomes are also wonderful devices for such problems....
