Tonight while I was cooking dinner (chicken breasts [because my wife rules], instant mashed potatoes, and steamed broccoli) I was listening to today’s new episode of the Gig Gab podcast. They were talking about making the best of every bar and club and music venue in American being closed and all of their gigs canceled by live streaming their bands.
Lizardfish has done that a couple of times and it’s always goofy fun. Listening to the discussion really made me want to get the four of us into a room together to just play for Facebook Live. It’ll be a couple of weeks as we’re not all riding it out in the same general region of New England, but I think once we all are back in the same state again we should do it.
Turns out I’m not the only one thinking of this. Neil Young let it be known today that he’s going to do some live streaming from his home. His wife is going to run the camera. His wife is Daryl Hannah. I had no idea he was married to a member of the Deadly Viper Assassination Squad, though she never got that Hattori Hanzo sword, did she.
After hearing this, I think we absolutely have to live stream our next practice. I mean, Neil wrote “Rocking in the Free World.” We play “Rocking in the Free World.” Now we can have two things in common with Neil. It’s pretty much our destiny, don’t you think?
