Daily Comment

Last night's gig was just as good as I had hoped, and, on top of that, I got some new pics out of the deal. The one above was taken on a phone, and I have no idea how he got the collage. Ain't technology grand?

Aside: I am still amazed at how, at this stage of my life, I have become the subject of so much photo-documentation. As is typical of me and my life, it's an unexpected by-product, and, hopefully, not much of an embarrassment to my son. It is a complete surprise to me.

There's something about low-volume percussion support that works really well for me, and the band, too. We hear each other better, and... differently.

Tonight I went to one of my regular open mics, and when I walked through the door, they asked if I would be the house bass player, so I ended up playing with an unusual number of different acts. Even though there were no musically memorable moments, I managed to get that timeless 'now' feeling that comes to me when I play. As always, when I feel that, it feels good!
