not even sure if THAT matters anymore...




           WEDNESDAY 6/26/19 8:15AM--as far as I know there's still a band practice tonight...I hope this sadness is temporary, but today I don't even care about being a Musician...I don't think anyone else cares either...I'm gonna start packing my Musical gear after the nap I'm gonna NEED by Lunchtime...and I DO hope to test the gear, before Dianne gets back home, THEN I'll pack the stuff......
              Getting up before 6AM didn't agree with me, but I'm fairly focused right now...I printed the lyrics/chords to the one song I was not familiar with...playing it seems easy enough to me...I think I've got enough time to practice whatever I need to practice before I have to get ready to go to practice...just might grab a guitar and get started now...
10:47AM--and so I did, for a little while...a capo on the 3rd fret of a de-tuned Butterscotch is not the same as tuning it in the Standard way but I don't intend to take two guitars to practice...it might be easier to tune it to Standard and the de-tune it when it comes time to play CENTERFIELD in E...
    11:17AM--OR I can learn some other place to play it on the neck...that just might work if I keep working on it...I'm optimistic...I've got until about 3PM tomorrow when it's time to do the load-in...in the long run, it will be easier--especially if I leave OUT the first two notes...but I bet somebody will notice...a revelation! If I can almost play it on Butterscotch, it should be a cinch on eBay, right?
       If Stoney isn't too picky or anal, I'll be fine...and I think we're rehearsing with one of our guests--THAT'S a new thing...I don't yet have HIS song down...but I think I will by Thursday night...
4:07PM--I actually got done most or all of what I wanted to get done...the gizmo needed new batteries and I had some--money I already spent...I went over that new song "Goin' Back to Kansas City" and I think I've got it...I think I'm leaving here at about 6:45 or so...I DO have to double check a map to make sure I know where I'm going...
