better than I expected

 
   THURSDAY 1/23/2020 10:49 PM--got back from Damascus about twenty or so minutes ago...Lou and I both stayed until the end...like I said, IMO Lou and I were pretty dammed good...Lou was happy with our performance...Lou and I were sharing a table with some acquaintances of his, one of whom was named Mary Ann McAllister...no, I'm not in love...but if she ever needs a guitar player, I'd audition for that position...Lou kinda sorta seems to be struggling a teeny tiny bit himself, which is probably why I don't hear from him...
    I was nervous enough to goof up the lyrics to LMYR, a Neil Young song I've probably sung as much as HE has...I flipped the verses...I don't enjoy playing MR. SOUL with Lou even though it's one of my favorite songs, but tonight, perhaps because I was playing electric guitar, it sounded pretty good...
FRIDAY 1/24/2020 7:43 AM--If I hadn't gone out last night, I might have gone out tonight to see Bailey and Dave Weber at the Grape Escape...but I did so I won't...Bailey said something on Flakebook about "joining in" with the singing, but I'm not sure she meant ME sharing the stage with them...
     Gonna try one more time to fix the reverb unit on my amp...I don't wanna take the ME 70 to the Grateful Dead jam that most of ACME will allegedly be participating in...maybe duct tape will do the trick... 
1:39PM--if only for a few minutes, my amp's reverb is working again...I think duct tape is the reason why...still undecided about bringing the ME 70 to the ACME event...at this point it seems likely, but who knows?
3:31PM--haven't checked in two hours, but I assume the duct tape is still holding things together inside my amp...still dunno what stuff I'm taking to Takoma Park on Sunday...In other News, even though it's so far away, the LCB reunion is being discussed in detail...the date has changed to the 21st and the scene of the crime will now apparently be Killarney House...allegedly there will be a reunion between Mike and Ray (and me?) at Galway Bay on the 15th...
 SATURDAY 1/25/2020 10:23 AM--I think I can take the ICC to get TO the gig tomorrow, but I will likely have to use the Beltway to get back home...there shouldn't be too much traffic on it at that time of night...
5:27 PM--If there's a problem with Sunday's schedule, it's the question of when (and what) do I have for Dinner...I suspect it will be a VERY early (or super late) Dinner...or more likely a very late Lunch or...whatever...To me, THAT'S the problem...I think I should allow myself time to get lost...if I wanna be at Post 350 by 4:15 or so, I think I should leave here by 3:30, more or less...I can eat Lunch on the way to Takoma Park...I have yet to determine if this particular VFW Post serves any food...
6:09 PM--it just might be quicker to take 270 and the Beltway to go TO the gig as well...it shouldn't be dark at 3:30...the Google Map/Directions are on my phone...I don't think there will be a problem getting there (crosses fingers)...
