hypocracy and redemption
a friend of mine did a solo gig at a place that was just up the road from me..I went, the housemate graciously let me use her car (I didn’t/wasn’t gonna ask)…I went up and sang harmony on a Tom Petty song–uninvited…sounded OK, but I felt like sh*t afterward…Went up again later (with a mutual friend) and THAT sounded real good…felt good too…Apologized after the gig, but Pete was magnanimous about it–there were, after all, lotsa wanna be percussionists in the audience…
my partner and I are likely gonna practice in my “bedroom” today–it’s just about as ready as it’s gonna be…but now I’ve got three boxes of “stuff” that eventually has to be dealt with…
money is (like almost always) a problem, maybe my partner can advance me some of the gig money…we’ll see…
ADDENDUM–a late start, but it went fairly well; no matter the reason it’s nice having a tidy “bedroom”…still planning on going across the street to see a band I’ve been wanting to see for a long time…I think the snow is done…that’s good, I gotta go to work on Sunday…
