We're heading over to Verles place the rain is over and he lives a block from the fireworks show tonight
Rock on and stay safe!
Remember, rubber side down and in between the ditches. Also, the roads will be full of drunk people. So, everyone in a car wants to kill you - or can't see you and wants to kill you by accident.
Oh yeah. I'm driving extra slow today.
For example...
I've consumed a bunch of liquid, including 6 liters of water.
Other than a dribble that looked darker than apple juice, I have yet to pee today.
That's how dehydrating this stuff can be.
Good choice.
I'm home and sore. I was pretty active on stage for a couple of nights. Still, it was fun.
I did my 'make it up as you go along history song'. I don't do it often, but I basically improv a story about how I was 13 and I just couldn't get good at the guitar, no matter how much I played. So, I went down to the crossroads on a full moon night and signed a deal with the devil. Now that I'm old, I don't regret it and the devil's gonna take my soul soon. It's just me and the drummer who I asked to set a beat at the start of it - though sometimes the rest will join in.
It's all just basically spoken and my guitar playing gets better and better as I go through it. I usually finish it with a giant bitching solo, which is how I ended it.
It usually starts with something like, "Hey, I'm gonna take a break for a minute to tell you about how I learned to play guitar. Drummer, give me a beat." It's sometimes timed to give the band the time to move stuff around.
