when the Ego runs amuck
went to a Blues Jam…played a bit of guitar, NO Bass, a bit of keyboards, and a buncha Drums…and sang some as well…and I said when I walked into the house that I just wanted to hang out…guess I lied (to myself)…my keyboard work was 5 on a scale of 10, but the drums were an 8…the most physical thing I’ve done lately, I’m OK I think…it’s hard for me to play a “right-handed” drumkit…that probably makes no sense I know, but it’s true…big day Thursday–rehearsal in Bel Air for the Saturday gig, and the roomie is taking me out to Dinner for my birthday…it’s almost 1AM, hope to be in bed by 1:30…For now, Life is Good…I’m actually not sure that my Ego had that much to do with it…not counting me, there was only one drummer at the jam in the first place…the keyboard playing? THAT was Ego, and I wouldn’t put “keyboards” on my Musical resumé, but I think the “5” is fair–had trouble hearing what I was playing…that wasn’t the problem with the drumming HA HA…
