survival is the goal
I went to work on Sunday, did a lot of the work, then went to the gig…sometimes THAT’S work too…it shouldn’t be, but it can be…at least one of the owners/managers of the restaurant/bar doesn’t seem to know how live Music works…by which I mean specifically, once ya establish a start time ya shouldn’t just suddenly spontaneously change it–“maybe you can start sooner because it’s getting dark…” (sigh) It’s not the band’s fault that yer in a not-so-nice neighborhood…but the gig went well enuff, there was a fair sized crowd and I came home with (hopefully) enough money to make it to Thursday…we acknowledged the time of year with some lyric mutation; some of it spontaneous, some of it written especially for Winter/Christmas…and again I’ll be SO glad when April gets here, no matter how many jobs I have or where they are…Life is probably better than I’m thinking it is…
