Roadies are a competitive lot. There's always going to be a spirited post count race every month . . . . sometimes subtle, sometimes not. :)

I see I am absent from the postcount chart so far this month. Can't have that. This ought to fix that.

Oh, sup y'all!

Ok see now I'm on the bottom. Can't have that. This ought to fix that.

Maybe a spirited race to stay off the bottom will occur this month, who knows.

Nah I doubt it. These other lurkers are even worse deadbeats than me.

I honestly think that our vocals will be one of the strongest of any local band in the lower Hudson Valley, stronger vocals than any of the local bands that I know around here. They sound great now (the woman singer is amazing), add my vocals and lead guitar and it will sound better still. I don't hear other bands doing the acoustic/electric guitar mix we're doing, it's somewhat unique and it sounds fantastic. Very excited.

My first gig (ever, of any kind) is this Saturday. 30 minutes all to myself (it will be all originals). Looking forward to it:

Terrible pic with the cell from on top of the garage at work, but it's a bridge, and possibly the only one you'll get this month.

All Peter Paul and Mary ever needed to put them over the top was a Marshall stack.

You realize of course that this means that technically I am on the verge of becoming a professional musician.

Just sayin.

We're all keeping our day jobs.

I ride the same model of bike frame that won some pro races. Clearly, I'm on the verge of becoming a pro cyclist. Just you all wait.

we just made one by nailing a few shipping palettes together. it's super ganky.

I found some plans for other outdoor furniture using pallets but, particularly with compost, I'm not so sure about chemical badness leaching out...

Yeah, a few hours or more, depending on the tools at your disposal. There are some kits out there, too, just depends on the look and features you want and the amount you're willing to spend.

Strings Attached. The younger lady in this photo has moved to central CT, so she may not be in the band forever, she plays percussion. I've been playing with John D, the man in the photo, for about six months, and Jean carries most of the vocals (great singer). We'll sound great together. Here is a rough tape of John and I playing in my basement, forgive the out of tune acoustic on this tape, and my guitar solo clam @ the end of the main guitar lead:

With this group I'll be lucky if I can dial the amp up past 3.

If there's one thing humanity needs, it's more basement band music.
