🦋 Two sets
Our set tonight was pretty excellent all things (such as that we had only played together on three occasions prior to the performance, with actual serious practicing going on on only one of those occasions) considered. The weakest of the three songs was "Hard Times", principally because (a) I don't know the part well enough and (b) I can't play vibrato, which was pretty strongly called for. The fast songs were great, both of us were really tuned in to each other and to the songs. Later we played two songs I did not know, "Cocaine Habit" (vaguely anti-drug song from the '30s) and "Bed on Your Floor" (similar in theme to "Palette on Your Floor" but totally different music). The set was extremely rough but fun -- I thought "Bed on Your Floor" has real possibilities if we practice it a bit. "Vinny Video" was filming the evening's performances and promised to send me a DVD. Who knows, maybe we will put it on YouTube!
