I was feeling a little down.
I had a couple of trades working, both looking good, but one winning, one losing, both showing positive indicators.
I was maybe a little down from the dearth of gigs (no dearth of playing opportunities, I was just missing that little bit of gig money).
Then Marco called just to say, "Hi!". We talked, happily, and he sent me a pic of the beautiful, deserted beach. Now I'm planning on driving down there this weekend, and feeling better.
Then came the i am Fool rehearsal, which was a lot of fun, and some interesting playing.
Straight from rehearsal to the open mic at Shifty's, where I waited and waited.
And then closed the night with a lo-o-ng set, that I opened with my first public performance of the Dead's 'Candy Man' which was well-received (I get so nervous when I perform on guitar - it gets some adrenaline flowing - far out of my comfort zone).
I switched to bass and hit with three more songs (two rockers, one panty-wetter ballad), and then, with the house players already on stage, invited a couple of late stragglers on, and it just swung like crazy.
So many smiles in the bar - every musician felt it.
And I was made whole.
