Hey everybody I know the commercials suck…

Here's what I was doing tonight. Just playing bach and then the blues. Trying to get something from the Cello Suite that I'm working in into the blues. Somehow the simplicity of and the magic of Bach's lines carried over at least in my…

They are finally done. Now I'll call Mike Balter and get a bunch! More news to come.
I came across this. Man Lalo, beside talent, has a great sense of humour... but that music is very serious! I had never tought about it before...

I bet most of the pros have done a few house parties. I dig them because usually you're in nice houses which means wealthy people, which usually means educated people and music appreciation.
We're usually left alone and can just play with…
I just thought it was funny that nobody has seen me in anything but t-shirts on the site, so in fun, this image.
Now the singer is Joana Pascale, a phenomenal singer. Bass player is my buddy Madison Rast, a heavy bass player.

Here it is and it's on dampening. Just some general ideas. As I mention I don't even think about dampening at all. So I must have it…
I spent the night practicing pedaling and thinking about my discussion with Nicofarr. So I summed it up here. Some babbling but I think you'll get the idea.
I just heard the post of nico, where he is playing just friends solo, and also the lesson tony did about solo playing as an answer to it. So I thought I'd post a tune I was working on playing solo: falling grace.
I was working on…
I saw the post and decided that I had to learn this tune. I read through it and I was instantly in love with it. I've known about this tune for a few minutes. It's great!!
In my town there is a special fiest for Children one week end per year. A giant firework on Friday night, all kinds of shows around the place, and in a park tons of games, sports, manual activities, actors in costums on stilts etc...
