Recap: Forever Plaid

The run had to come to an end.

Over the weekend, Forever Plaid at the Herongate had come to a close and I, as the bass player, am happy of the time spent in this show. I had a chance to work with some wonderful and talented people and I hope to have the opportunity to work with them again. The time spent, although long, was worth while and fun. On a side note, I never realized how well I would be able to read music with my double bass tuned in 5ths. Nor did I realize how well I would be able to fill a room with its sound. Even with both a piano and drums, my bass cut through all that sound and was able to withstand being drowned out.

I learned a lot during this run and I am very thankful for the opportunity to play at the "barn".

Eye Problems

For about 2 weeks now, I've been walking around with an injury to my right eye. It wasn't until early this week that I finally got my eye checked out. Turns out, my cornea is scratched and now has a bacterial infections. Anyway, the moral of this story is: don't mess around with any eye injuries; no matter how macho you may feel.
