There ought to be a thread where all the musicians in The Lounge can share their music. I just don't know if that's a good idea since there aren't very many...

Regarding your recording, you have a nice sense of rhythm, but the guitar sounds out of tune.

my ear isn't good enough to tune this 12 string I found in the basement of the house I'm at for the weekend. My hands had a tough time keeping up with my brain because I haven't been playing lately, but I always say that **** ups are the root of true improvisation.

Somewhat by chance, I visited an Anni Albers exhibition today, which I enjoyed. Some people find their vocation, like riding a wave.

I don't trust art galleries. Too middle-class.

I'm listening to Juliana Hatfield's cover album of Olivia Newton-John songs. I think Dom would like it.

old habits die hard. I don't really mind if its a little sharp or flat, just that the notes make sense relative to each other. At home I use the piano to tune my guitars. Like I told my little cousin that was having a moment due to an art project that wasn't just right, "art is never perfect."

Some art, so called, is worthwhile and the middle class need feeding to keep them docile. This ties directly into Olivia Newton John songs.

I'm off for dinner, fresh fish I think. Straight from the Ionian Sea.

You think right. Never understood why Juliana Hatfield never became a big star.

I was trying to think of a good joke, but after 20+ years of that drama, there is nothing I can say.

I don't think it was "just another night". Old acquaintances, new acquaintances, some brewski swilling, music, generosity and maybe some things to look forward to. Merry belated Xmas!
