where did THAT voice come from?




                  WEDNESDAY 11:08PM--rehearsal went well enough...I haven't been singing much in the car or anywhere else for that matter...seems like the rest did my voice good...I felt like I was singing notes (from the diaphragm?) that I didn't think I could hit w/o using my falsetto...as for CENTERFIELD in E, I think I'll be OK...my playing wasn't bad either...if only I could act like a bit of a big deal, maybe some people would think I actually was...
        THURSDAY 6/27/19 6:50AM--I made a keyboard practice CD...it's songs that don't have many if any keyboards on 'em...dunno when I'm gonna get to try it out...after my Doctor's appointment and Lunch, I should take a nap...but the load-in is at 3PM...and I have some studying to do...
8:22AM--I got cocky...I shouldn't have, it will be quite awhile before I'm ready to audition for the ABC Band...
          SOME TIME AROUND 10PM--I’m getting such a bizarre tone out of my gear, I don’t know why..it sounded fine at the rehearsal last night, but tonight? not so much... and, on top of that, I forgot to put in my earplugs ! better late than never, that’s what I always say… And somebody is using my gear-he didn’t ask ME for permission… what I should’ve done is a kind of sound check before I left the house… I should’ve taken the amp out of the trunk, brought it into the living room or kitchen and done a Soundcheck-maybe I’ve learned a lesson tonight... let’s hope so… 
FRIDAY 6/28/19 2:03 AM--my ears aren't ringing as much as they could...I think what I did best tonight was harmony singing...even with Jeff Jones...the guitar playing wasn't too bad...I dropped my guard and mentioned to Butch that only on the 4th Thursday of the Month do I feel like a member of the MontCo Musical community...he disagreed with my assessment, but *I* stand by it...in any case, I've got $60 in my pocket that I didn't have before...
          7:31AM--nobody's fault but mine, but my ears ARE ringing enough...I think I've got most of the day to put the Musical equipment away...definitely no intent to go out tonight, and tomorrow night is the night before going to Sunday brunch with the ex-in-laws...
9:15 there is a brief video of a couple of songs from the 4th Thursday open mic last night...I didn't know at the time, but my "Neil Young" gizmo setting worked really well...and I wasn't as loud as I thought I might be...
