the Bel Air gig went quite well, all things considered…the PA (an emergency purchase to replace SLR’s PA) worked, thank goodness…the singer was (mostly) over her cold; there was a grandchild in the hospital, *I* didn’t have enuff money in the Bank to cover the deposit for the rental car…the patrons of the art gallery […]

the ad hoc band didn’t practice tonight, so I went (by car–thanks again to the housemate) to see some friends play their gig…I was hoping to sing a few with ’em, but I THINK I coulda just as easily been a mere spectator…The bass player apologized for not getting me up for certain songs, but […]
