The two original songs? Not good enough. But won't give up. Got a beautiful white PRS guitar today in a trade...

Song #2

Working on song #2 with the lyricist.... Getting into guitar again ....

S o n g

Looks like a song the lyricist and I have been working on has a chance of being demoed soon.... Then possibly off to publishers.... Excited!

Couple of things: 1. Saw Roger Waters perform "The Wall" on July 14th...wow!!! Great show, great message, and what made it even better was I got to bond with my son by bringing him to the show. Great time in the car listening to Pink Floyd and the Beatles too. 2. Might be adding a drummer to the band....

Had a good time last nite playing with the band for about 34 senior citizens in a retirement type home. Was great: they seemed quite appreciative, and they seemed to enjoy us. That's what sharing music is about. Might be auditioning a drummer soon.

E X P A N S I O N

Been working with a successful lyricist. We've been working on an original, and he suggests it's about 90% ready to be sent to publishers for consideration; needs some polish. Also putting my toes in the water with regards to possibly joining a band. The present band I'm in has a gig tomorrow as well as a gig sometime next week. Been looking at guitars on line....(sigh....) Listened to the latest Beach Boys album yesterday, and today doing some listening to Springsteen's Wild, Innocent, and E Street Shuffle album.
