We stopped at this lake with a beach area. I haven’t a clue where it is.

The Mrs and I are out for a drive. I haven’t a clue where we are.
CameraBag in the Cemetery
I was messing with CameraBag on my Mac using some of the pics I took on Memorial Day. I do love cemetery pics.
Flyer
How often do you see a flyer for your current guitar playing obsession hanging on the wall at the supermarket?
I’m sorry Mr Thompson, but June 20th doesn’t work for me. Can you stick around and play again on June 21st?
Late Night Music Post
Done. Sort of.
All 10 April songs are mixed and uploaded to alonetone.com.
All 10 March songs are mixed and uploaded to alonetone.com.
The cover song I threw onto the list on Sunday is mixed and uploaded to alonetone.com.
The 12-bar I threw onto the list yesterday is… not. I still need a vocal for that one, but that is absolutely all that’s left for what is now the March/April/May music project.
Here’s the cover song. I’ll post the rest of the stuff tomorrow… or someday.
This is Robin Trower’s “I Can’t Wait Much Longer”. I believe it was written by Trower and Frankie Miller, but something makes me think it was just Frankie Miller.
I used the Jimi Hendrix Amplitube app for all of the guitars. I hope Mr Trower approves of that decision. I should have tuned down a semitone or two. My voice is able to hit everything in the melody, but I have to sort of push hard to get up to some of the higher notes. This song needs a softer touch than my lame shouting. James Dewar I am not.
I have freakin’ loved this song for ages upon ages and I do not believe I did it justice. It was fun playing around with it though. I had to install an AU plugin to get the flanger onto the cymbals. I also had to learn how to install AU plugins. I am sure that Garageband 6 had a flanger. Didn’t it?
HipstaKitty Shake to Shuffle
A little Hipstamatic shake to shuffle time with Ms HipstaKitty.
Weird
Its very weird today. My wife and I are on vacation (staycation) but the kids are not.
It feels weird to be lounging around in the living room, but still needing to Marshall the troops so we can leave for school. Its so weird.
I Did it Again
I did it again. I just added another song. It’s a vocal away from being finished. Why did I do that? Instead of having three vocals to record, I now have five. What a doofus.
It’s nothing but a goofy 12-bar. Aren’t there enough of those in the world already? Why did I suddenly have to add another one.
What a jerk.
Memorial Day
Memorial Day Parade Pre-Game
Memorial Day Parade Pre-Game: the high school band is set up at the parade’s finish line. A few of them are warming up by playing music from The Godfather. Comment on the appropriateness.
