Weekend Recap

Playing with someone new is always an interesting experience. I find myself with mixed emotions when thrown into these kinds of situations. Excitement to have a new situation presented and anxiety to think that you are not capable enough to keep up seem to run rampant with the anticipation of the first tune. This past Saturday at One Up, I had the fortunate opportunity to play with a new guitarist. Once we began, I could easily recognize that this guitarist had some very good chops and that I would have an easy time playing with him. Everything went very well even though I am still fighting through my bass tuning in fifths. Regardless, everything seemed to come together very well once we jumped into the first set right on through to the end of the third set. Anyway, by the end of the night, my hands were were spent and was happy with the way things sounded and I hope to play with Brennan (g), Lianne (v) and Dan (d)in the future.
