so I was wrong…
my friend Lou seemed to really wanna go to a certain open mic, so I said OK…I didn’t expect to have a whole lotta fun, but I had more than I thought I’d have…Lou and I did our acoustic thing (in between two electric blues groups) and did OK musically–not sure if the crowd was into us, but I don’t care all that much…sat in with a female singer (uh oh) but I’m not sure if I’ll ever see her again…and (uh oh) I sure would like to…
I played some Bass and some Guitar; and drums on one song–I’m frequently surprised at the songs some Musicians DON’T know–I mean really, WHITE ROOM by Cream? oh well…It still feels weird playin’ a “right-handed” drum set…but I managed…I was not surprised that the drummer was clueless on that one–he is IMO just an OK drummer in the first place, tends to speed up at least a little…it sounds arrogant (because it IS) but I DO know a lotta songs,one way or another…the female singer wanted to do MIDNIGHT AT THE OASIS…we kinda made it thru one verse then collapsed when we got to the bridge; a bummer but we all survived…DREAMS was not too bad…gonna try and get some sleep…gotta have the donate-ables out by 8AM…
