Boy do I feeeeel goood. Mmhmm. Yup. And I've scribbled about two pages of poetry I can't read. But it's good. I'm sure of it.

Almost packed for the Detroit trip, and I'm now exploring the concept of zero. Yup. Zero.

And planning for an absolutely awesome Thursday night with PA and Mr. Clement.

I'm quite certain that I like the one of FM without the bass. Why? The boots and she has a cute smile.

I've informed my band mates that I want to attempt "The Georgia Satellites' " classic, 'Keep Your Hands to Yourself".

TY....the best part about those boots is the back...the zipper goes all the way down to the bottom of the heel.
That is a great song.

You two look wonderful...love to see you rocking that sexy top, and always love to see PA's goddess legs. The only thing that could make that picture better is me....tear!!

I take DT's point about the boots and the smile, but I'm going with the *with.* Killer. Chick in black with unlined fretless in black. So much to like.

The Precision Lyte was the precursor to the Fender Zone. The one Gladys's bass player has is the match to one I had. Hated to sell it but I found it too tough switching between 4 & 5 string with different string spacing.

Now that I'm much more comfortable with the narrower 5 string spacing I've been looking at picking up another Lyte.

Thanks! It probably would have been better if you could have seen the shoes...they were these.

as for me, just finished a stretch of three practices in four days with three different groups. In reverse order, today with the Vague Assurances - although we're on a little bit of a break now. Looking to go back into the studio in August to follow up our 9-song EP with a full-length CD.

Yesterday, practice with the yet unnamed blues/oldies project, which I predict will be a popular local bar band within about 6 months. It's two guitars plus me on bass. They want me to play mandolin on some songs, and on those one of the guitarists takes over on bass. OK with me.

Thursday was kind of an audition on upright with a very interesting jazz/rock fusion group doing all originals. Looks like I did OK. They have a female singer but are just working on the instruments for now. It's challenging musically but I think it's going to be very cool if it works out.

Um.....maybe you just answered your own question? Break. Unnamed (how can I find you???). And audition. Sorta.

I'm pretty sure Mrs. C3 isn't going to be happy if I just show up knocking on the door of the spare bedroom as though I live there already.
