Last night’s band practice was pretty good. Specifically, the band was pretty good. The Lead guitarist? Not so much. I couldn’t get out of my own way on most leads. It was frustrating. I went into every solo dumbing it down a little from the one before. I did pull off some pretty sweet feedback tricks though. All in all I think that goofy album in a day project wore me out a little. My fingers were still burning a little and I just felt off.
I recorded the practice on my MacBook. I haven’t had a chance to listen yet, but I did learn something interesting. I didn’t bring my charger with me. I usually don’t. Practice is two hours long and even though GarageBand eats up power like a crazy person, I can make it through two hours with plenty of juice to spare. That, however, was before upgrading to Catalina. Last night the battery was down to 1% with 20 minutes left to go. Ouch. I guess I’m bringing the charger from now on. I’m just not sure I have a free plug.
