friends again?

 

          THURSDAY 6/24/21 11:10PM--went to Hershey's, took SueEl with me...got there more or less on time...played a bunch, then I took a break...kinda proud of myself in a way...I don't think I need to be on the stage or in the spotlight all the time...apparently some people do...Jeff isn't finished with my Bass, but that's OK...SueEl got up and sang a bunch...I dunno if she could hear herself, but *I* could barely hear her...
         I think I've made peace with both Barnaby and Brian...that feels good...they too are apparently alienated from the Johnstones...
        After a couple hours, the guitarist who seemed to crave center stage more than the other Musicians (definitely the loudest of the five or six guitarists) left at some point, complaining that HE COULDN'T HEAR HIMSELF...that's ironic...
     A friend of SueEl's showed up and took her home...the Jam ran a bit over the scheduled end and there was a lot of socialising afterwards...
        Pretty sure I'm gonna have to buy some 9 volt batteries for my stomp boxes before I go sit in with Ray...I THINK the Boss Digital Reverb drains its' battery faster than my other stomp boxes...EDIT--or I can use the Gizmo...I think THAT'S what I'll do--Johnny V uses a big pedalboard, so...
  FRIDAY 6/25/21 Midnight-- I've got a very nearly full tank of gas...that's good news, thank you Universe...
12:40AM--I'm actually considering trying to be at Pirates Cove by Ray's start time--ONE O'CLOCK!!! But even while I typed that, I started reconsidering the idea...let's see what Dianne thinks about that...
11:20AM--it was way more difficult to put new strings on Butterscotch than usual, but it's done...
1:04PM-- I'm actually getting excitied about going to PC tomorrow...
5:12PM--Butterscotch seems to be all tuned up and ready to go...I think the strings are just about as stretched out as they're gonna be...
8:30PM-I’ve got the ME 70, two guitar cables, a mic cable, two different microphones, the power cord for the ME 70, a power strip and plenty of Velcro strips in the same bag…and a spare set of guitar strings in the guitar case itself…I don’t think I could be better equipped…
10:25PM--I wish I could find my tripod because I'd either record some audio or some video at the Ray Weaver gig tomorrow...but because I looked for it, I couldn't find it...typical...
