OK OK someone has to be first so I might as well get things started - can't stand to see an empty space so I'll ask the dumb question and break the ice.
When I'm practicing I use the part-whole technique, so I'll practice one or two bars until I'm comfortable and then move on the the next couple. My problem is when I try to put them together I mentally want to stop where I have been when I practiced that part. Then I have one of those commercial moments 'But wait! There's more! but by then the rhythm of the song is in the tank. I realize it's one of those questions I don't want to hear the answer to (practice, practice, practice) but I figured someone might have a trick or two up their sleeve.
