keyboard progress? yes and no
TUESDAY 7/30/19 12:24PM--I've got about a dozen songs that I just ran through that I can play on the keyboard--some better than others...none of them are songs ACME does or would do...None of the musical relationships I'm currently in would play them...but I had fun playing 'em...I just put iTunes on shuffle and let it go...I skipped over songs that I thought were beyond my ability, but there weren't too many of those...
5:40 PM--the newest keyboard list (#5) has 19 songs on it...there are already keyboards on most of the songs, but there's room for me on most of them...I was just shuffling though my iTunes Library, so I wrote a list of what I had heard/played so far and made two playlists...one is 75 minutes long the other (so far) is 36 minutes long...considering the sonic differences between CDs and a mono signal from the phone, I'll likely make CDs to practice with...now I've got stuff to do tomorrow...
I had an accident on the deck...I'm in a fair amount of pain; there will be no more KB practice today...I hope I will be able to walk tomorrow--no I don't think I'm exaggerating...
7:15PM--I see Jeff Herbert has a gig on August the 17th at Beers and Cheers Too...If he asks, I'll play...if he doesn't, that's OK too...
7:45PM--Barry finally sent me his set list for Thursday...I've got all the songs but one in my iTunes Library...I think I'm only going so I can talk to him about my future in the Combustibles...
WEDNESDAY 7/31/19--keyboard practice list #5 is finished...it too is 75 minutes long, that's coincidence...
5:15PM--there's a certain 2-chord sequence in a Kate Bush song that's been driving me nuts for a number of years...it didn't occur to me to try and figure it out on my keyboard(which I've also had for a number of years) until today...and I did! And that may be the most positive thing to happen today, so far...
6:40PM--I see an early bedtime for myself, 10PM if not earlier...I think those two Xanax I took are kicking in now...I'm OK with that, except that it's not even 7PM yet...
9:15 PM--I was minutes before going to bed at about 8:00 when I remembered that I was doing Laundry...So now the darks are done...the rest of the clothes will probably be done tomorrow...for better or worse, I'm going to the SAW open mic so I have to look good (I dunno why) and act like I've got my act together--which I don't...
