opposites detract
so now Karmafest 2013 is history…don’t ask ME how it went; I was told by various people that SLR and I (with Doug on percussion) were great…I can’t verify that…It almost felt like we barely knew each other, which may actually be true…I had written something specific for my portion of the “Freedom Jam”–now I believe it was too much of a surprise to SLR…”Not at all how I thought it would go” is what I remember her saying…Her friend Shane was a part of it, as was our friend Michelle…it was more than just a little loose…I think I know her well enough to know that however happy she seemed to be today, she’ll be miserable tomorrow…And my desire to be seen as more than just her guitar player will likely look like the Ego trip that I DIDN’T plan it to be in the first place…it was a HUGE stage; not the first time we played on it…it felt UN-intimate the last time we played on it…oh well, the roomie said she had fun, that was very important to me…did *I* have fun? I don’t know for certain…it seems doubtful at this point…
tomorrow it’s back to MSR…that almost feels like a comfort zone comparatively speaking…and I’d bet SLR knows that…
and between Friday night’s gig and today’s, my ears are ringing a bunch…but if the roomie watches something stupid on TV I will slap on the headphones…so far she’s just watching Downton Abbey…it could be worse…
