Get off my LAWN! "Grumpy Old Farts"

-"but you can never leave?" Nah, too late.
So being a musician runs in your family. You got the old man to thank for leading you astray.
Yeah. He was a sax man. I started on piano; clarinet and sax in h.s., went in the Navy on sax/clarinet, came out mostly on bass.
But, is he grumpy?
Mercurial.

Does posting a cover of the same song every week indicate that I’m stuck in my ways, as older folks often are?

None of us remember what you posted last week anyway!
Roll call all. Please report in that all appendages accounted for and present. The weather is getting humid and warm (for us Sitkans) and starting to see college kids running around doing the seasonal jobs. Kind of puts a spring back in my step. We had a contractor rebuild our front porch stairs, it was weather damaged and the cedar weatherproofing coat had worn off.
We're going to start repairs on my shed. One wall is rotting out and the front porch needs replacement. I've turned it into a Sanford and Sons collection of ancient computer and guitar/bass stuff I don't use or have dozens of duplicates. I could start a music accessory store! Giving most of it to the Salvation Army. They do good work and the money helps to feed the homeless.
Getting ready to rehearse for two gigs on July 3rd and 4th. I haven't been up to snuff and a little blue lately but time to knock my butt off the recliner and get motivated. Losing so many of our young heroes in older age jolts me into reality that we have to make use of our time. I'll work on that tomorrow.

We played this in my last band in the 2010's and even the young people liked it.. Might bring it back...
Recording artists know they are GOF's when reissued, digitally mastered stuff of theirs is released just thinking!
Reporting in. Still alive and semi-well.
Catching up on some past-due paperwork.

Reporting as ordered. Finally got my mountain bike rolling this week and managed to work through the initial pain, which was pretty brutal. Haven't felt this strong in ages, hope I can keep that going.

Who is it asking us to line up alphabetically by height?
A GoF bummer is that moment when observing yourself kind of humming along and maybe grooving to something you hear in a public area when you realize
when you realize
that's Locomotive Breath you're hearing as muzak

Still here and functioning. Supposed to play at a big blues fest on Sunday. Eight bands each doing a 45 minute set. Here's the kicker. 10 minutes for band change over and I haven't heard that this is backlined. Oh , and it's supposed to rain all day. Should be interesting to say the least. I'll try to remember to report back Sunday night or Monday on how this cluster**** went.
