Well, I had a fantastic weekend, I have to say. I got to spend time with a lot of my friends, which is always good, and I made some new friends along the way. I’m stoked. Really looking forward to playing my show tomorrow night. I have been calling everyone in town to get them to come see me and messaging the guys in my band nonstop. Thanks for putting up with that, guys.
The funniest thing I heard all weekend was Pat making fun of Andra’s skirt. He said “Who shot the couch?” and then did a little dance. Priceless.
Thursday night I played a breast cancer benefit show at CJ’s, and then my band and I stayed on stage to back up Sonia Leigh. During one of my solos I threw my guitar on the stage and played it with my foot. That was fun. Sonia’s a good sport to let my rowdy ass band play on her heartbreaking and beautiful songs. I sure do love her. She got into the act too, we both rolled around on stage while playing “Feelin’ Alright”, one of her favorite covers. That’s what I call good times.
I need to get my hands on some of those Lindy Fralin pickups so I can up the output of my strat to similar levels as my Tele. A little more preamp gain would sure do the trick with that strat. Right now it’s taking a back seat to the telecaster, which is fine, but I like the feel and setup of strats better. Unfortunately I don’t have the cheese to put toward that right now.
I also need some pro photos taken, and I’d like to get some video shot as well. There’s a lot to do, no doubt about that.
