MONDAY 11/8/21 8AM-I went to Dietle’s last night to see No Part of Nothing, a bluegrass group that has Michelle in it… mandolin player Jeff, the guy who got a free telecaster outta me – unless he actually did the guitar work I asked him to do – is also in the band… He doesn’t exactly play bluegrass mandolin, not even close… But he’s a fairly good harmony singer.
SueEl and I are planning on going to Dietle’s Tavern this evening for the open mic… of the two open mics that I go to on a semi regular basis, I like the Dietle’s open mic the most…
I’m not really sure why but the open mic hasn’t caught on yet. Attendance is low, musicians and “civilians". But of course, you take what you can get…
I am trying to work out the logistics of the evening…I don’t wanna leave Gaithersburg go to Rockville, feed the cat and then go back up to Gberg and pick up Sue Ellen…I COULD leave G Burg to pick Sue Ellen up, come back to Rockville (which is where the O.M. is and then feed the cat before we go to Dietle’s… whatever’s going to happen is what’s going to happen…
12:42PM--SueEl says she's not going due to financial difficulties...it sounds terrible, but I kinda hope she DOESN'T suddenly find the money...it would be A LOT easier on me logistically...
4:33PM--I'm hoping to go back to Rville, feed the cat then have the rest of MY dinner soon, then go to Dietle's alone...kinda nervous about it actually...
MIDNIGHT- just got in from Dietle’s…I did three songs with a band…musically? the visit was fairly satisfying, socially? not all that much…
TUESDAY 11/9/21 932AM-I think I’m gonna be here in Rockville all day today and all evening and overnight… I have no plans for me to go anywhere else, and I’m OK with that…
I thought I was making some new friends last night at Dietle’s … Today, I’m not so sure about that… I suddenly found myself being left out of the conversation between two real friends, that is, I felt left out… I did run into someone I vaguely knew, but as always, he seemed rather chilly towards me…as for today, hopefully I won’t have to leave Rockville to go anywhere or do anything… and now that I’ve said that, I will probably hear from Dianne sometime this morning – oh well… maybe I can get out of doing whatever it is she has in mind;
It’s nearly impossible for me to believe it’s only Tuesday; I think I have a doctors appointment on Thursday morning, and I plan to go to the Hershey’s jam later that evening… frankly, I’d like to see what two days off in a row feels like…
Well, for starters, I’ve started thinking that, with regard to my Musical career, it’s pretty much over… I can’t be the worst guitar player in Montgomery county, or the worst harmony singer or the worst lead singer… but I think I can rightfully claim the title of worst stage presence… and of course, I can’t help what I look like…quite depressing…
5:29PM-I was thinking that theoretically I could go to Dietle’s and hear some live music…they seemingly have live music on weekdays, which is unusual…And then I heard the ringing in my ears and changed my mind…
