Haven't posted all day because...
... a producer friend of mine is involved in a rock/hip-hop/industrial project for an artist, and since I have literally thousands of loops, he was over this afternoon perusing my collection and we burned him 8 CDs worth to use on his project.
Then I went out and mowed the lawn, and then K and I went to Home Depot where I bought a new table saw.
And when I got home, I decided to re-build a kit guitar that I had in mothballs. It's a cool purplish Strat body, with humbucker at the bridge and 2 Strat pickups on the neck and in the middle. One volume control, NO tone control, three mini-toggle on/off switches, one for each pickup.
Sounds strange, but it's actually kinda cool-looking. I'll post a pic of it in a bit. So that's what I did today, and that's why I wasn't around.
Not bad for a few hours' work...

Blah3,
As we used to say in the late 60's/early 70's, "groovy, baby."

Yeah, I'm diggin' it.
This new band I'm in is going to be a challenge, in that I'll be carrying at least a half-dozen guitars to every show. We're doing some stuff where we're tuning down a full step, some other stuff where we're tuning down a half step, and a few songs where I'll be playing 7-string.
And since I currently lead the league in broken strings (if my guitars could talk, they'd be cursing me), I'll need to carry doubles of whatever it is I'm playing at the moment.
Ah, show biz.

Far out, man. Just balance the band and this blog, okay?

No prob. At this point last year, I was doing this blog and 2 bands.
Blog + one band = with ease. Now if I could keep damn work freom interfering, I'd be all set.
