50 Guitars

I put rhythm guitars on four songs tonight and lead guitars on two.

I have to check my math here but… I think that’s 50 songs with rhythm guitars. 50/90 just hit a gigantic milestone. I still have a lot of lyrics and melodies to write and a lot of recording to do.

Happy Birthday, Neil

Today would have been Neil Peart’s 68th birthday, Notice how almost immediately after we lost Neil, society went down the shitter. Coincidence? I don’t think so.

I’ve got two Rush pins on my guitar strap. The Test for Echo pin was bought at a merch stand at a Test for Echo show in either 1996 or 1997… I think.

The Exit… Stage Left pin was purchased at a t-shirt store in the old Billerica mall probably in… 1982? Maybe? Can you say, family heirloom?

Two Cars

Yesterday there was one car at the movie theater. Today there are two.

Are they opening up again? Are they insane?

Wait…. are they already open? They are, aren’t they. No wonder our infection numbers keep going up.

Addendum: I just Googled “movies 01844” and sure enough, this movie theater is open. If your goal is to kill your family and friends, there are easier ways.

New Strings Day

I started using my ES-335 for my home demo projects back in late May. The other day I was missing my Les Paul. I didn’t play it because the strings were an ancient mess.

These puppies came from amazon today. Guess which gitter is getting a new set. Go on, guess.
