Well, I did it again.
Despite my assertions, I have gone and got myself involved with another musical situation.
After our band Sedona broke up I said (for the 20th time) that I was through with bands.
But duets are different.
Fast, EFFICIENT practices.
So, this young dude who has been helping me out with my nursing home gigs is coming by tomorrow and we are thinking of trying something marketable. To play out in one of the plethora of music venues in the Miami Valley.
Two acoustic guitars.
Two strong vocals; we’ll alternate leads and harmonies.
I am stoked because I might get to play my electric guitar on some songs.
My new partner’s name is Zack Fisher and he goes by the name of “Fish.”
I am Maddogg, so take a guess what we came up with?
DoggFish.
I’m also stoked because he writes music and we can collab.
I will keep you posted and will report on tomorrow’s first “band” meeting.
Just like every band ever, our first practice was cancelled.
We’ll try again next week.
The weather lately has been unpredictable, to say the least.
Today is a gorgeous, sunny day in contrast to the freezing temperatures we’ve had.
Who are these numbnuts dime store philosophers who want to give meaning to every line of every song?
Sometimes a song is just a cool series of notes or chords and words to enjoy listening to. Not every song is a treatise or master plan for the meaning of the universe.
It’s a fucking song.
The fur-laden messenger from an as-yet discovered sister planet, it’s a dog.
That’s it.
Like many of us, it licks his balls as often as he needs to.
No, not me, silly.
Not anymore.
So our buddies the British are considering legislation to all faith-based schools to exclude any non-believers.
That’s the spirit.
Segment your society even further.
What we need is the opposite.
Who gives a shit if they believe in your God or even a God?
It’s none of your (choose one) Goddamned business.
Religion is a great blessing.
Just ask anyone living in the Middle East.
Or Detroit.
They are finally removing shipping containers from the cargo ship that took out the bridge in Baltimore.
Twelve days ago.
So make sure you give those dumbasses your fair share of ill will when milk goes up to ten dollars a gallon, because you know they will blame EVERY product is affected so up go the prices once more.
Muslim protesters in Michigan are chanting “Death to America!”
“Death to Israel!”
Death.
That’s your answer for everything?
How about “Death to douchebags who chant “death to?”
Besides, “Death to America?”
Oh never mind; I forgot.
They live in Michigan.
I have another little one-hour show to perform this Friday at a nursing home and it is at 10:30AM.
In the morning.
I thought old people still had on their PJ’s and a cup of coffee in their hands at 10:30AM.
I do.
Wait a minute…
Stay well.
