because I was me…
tonight’s gig went very well IMO…Frankly I was pretty happy with my guitar playing for once…I think that was because I DIDN’T get into a “shooting match” with the other guitarist…I played like ME and he played like HIMSELF…We traded riffs back and forth once or twice and that was neat…Stylistically and tone wise we’re quite different…and he can play some things that I can’t play…but I think we play together very well…I actually had some new (for me anyway) ideas, THAT felt good…and I tried not repeat myself, except when repetition was the whole point of the idea…Dunno if the “civilians” (the audience) notice or care about stuff like that…but it made ME feel good…and I somehow managed to keep my energy level fairly high from the beginning to the end of the show…THAT was a surprise…
Dunno what the rest of the weekend is gonna be like…dunno if I’m over the stomach problem, it’s possible…Life is not bad…it’s so hard to “de-compress” after a gig, but I’m trying to…
