trying to get back in the groove

          THURSDAY 11/14/19 8:34 PM--the call went out to the members of the FHB to suggest one new song each to add to our song list...*I* suggested DON'T DO IT by the Band...I dunno what the other guys think but Stoney was cool on the idea...I'd bet money that he just doesn't like the song/arrangement because of what is more or less a one-note bass line...He suggested SATURDAY NIGHT'S ALRIGHT by Elton John...it's got more energy in it...I sang that once at an open mic somewaht spontaneously...I think Sue Johnstone wrote out the lyrics for me...
FRIDAY 11/15/19 7:48 PM--I don't think I have any band practices this weekend...I'm OK with that...I think there's one by the FHB next Thursday, two days before the gig...I'm already getting a butterfly or two in my stomach...and I've still got another week...
11:10 PM--I've just spent the last two hours extracting the audio from three dozen youTube videos that Stu uploaded of the SNOWDAWGZ live...Two venues were involved--Hershey's and an AmerLegion post in Laurel...two different drummers were used--Randy at Hershey's and Rich at the Legion...Jeff played Bass at both gigs...
           I keep meaning to check in with Stu to see how things are going, find out if anything is going on in the near future...at this point in time, it may be a bit late in the evening...I'll try tomorrow...
SATURDAY 11/16/19 8:51 AM--I was gonna go thru my phone and take out songs that I don't know and/or have no strong desire to hear...I was gonna take out playlists that I didn't want or need...to make a LONG story short, it was easier to leave it all on the phone...In fact, I ADDED some stuff-the Snowdawgz live stuff...I THINK the phone still has half its' gigabytes left...that seems like a lot to me...
 SUNDAY 11/17/19 4:51 PM--starting to think a bit more about the upcoming FHB gig...made a list of songs *I* think I need to polish...there's eight so far...Had a chat with Stoney, he says he feels bad that I wasn't asked to sit-in with the 'stoppers last night...I'm still ambivalent about it...
