the unexpected–again

so I didn’t get to go out this evening, but I DID go out to an open mic…in the afternoon, which is kinda weird IMO…the roomie and I did some stuff in the morning, then we came home for a bit…then we went out to do more stuff…like the open mic…I was not alone onstage […]

the unexpected

as I was leaving to go to the gig (in the roomie’s car!) I got the call–the gig is canceled…apparently the venue booked another band…I can only guess that THEY got there first…a financial bummer, but otherwise? not so much…the weather isn’t good, which can have an effect on the turnout…I’m tired/sleepy or something…besides being […]

but I earned it…

Lou and went to the Amerlegion O.M. and eventually did an OK set–WE were at least OK, the rhythm section? not so much IMO…The publicized host was his usual scatterbrained self…He doesn’t seem to feel the need to change that…the ACTUAL host was more on top of things…AND he loaned me $20…half of which went […]
