went to a “jam” at somebody’s house…how a jam differs from an open mic is a mystery to me, but anyway–it was good…there were some less experienced players there, but one of ’em was fairly brave Musically and that was fun, I don’t think I’ve EVER played MTN JAM by the Allman Bros. with anybody…and while the kid couldn’t (or just didn’t) feel the jam almost turning into DOWN BY THE RIVER and/or he was hung up on structure, etc. it was fun, and THAT is what matters the most…I don’t think I was bossy or some kinda Field Marshall/dictator, but SOME discipline is a good thing IMO… MTN. JAM DIDN’T turn into anything, not that I didn’t try, but that’s OK…I played Guitar on some numbers and Bass on others; the ears are ringing LOTS and I’m ready to get some sleep…if this toothache goes away; yeah I took something for it…
TEN Hours Later–got lotsa sleep, as did the “roomie”…I’m still sleepy or tired or something, her too…there could be something wrong going on…or it may just be a co-incidence…I might be back in bed by 3:30, because there’s stuff going on tonight…still wrestling with a toothache, taking ibruprofen for it…otherwise, Life is Good…
