A you know, I had to drive through "Gun Alley" today to make it to the music gig I was playing. I picked up Mike, we loaded up my truck with gear, and made it to the gig. The bass player was late, but we tried not to give him too hard a time. The music was fun, and we were appreciated. No songs with no applause at the end. I got to move my mic down for a 5-year-old who was "jammin' on his harmonica." Now I am home and relaxing. Just another day in the Bay Area. Photo is of the Collings OM-1 I used today.

The photo gave it it's best try, but didn't quite make it. I'm glad to hear you made it home safe and sound.

@AmbiePam I have not had a photo "work" in several weeks. You must be one of the "coastal elites."

I'm glad you had a good time and made it home safe and sound. Did you get paid? Have a good week.

We didn't get paid officially. But the little fella's cousin (a girl of about six, who also was jamming along with us with her harmonica) walked around with the tip jar. I think we came away with $160. Heck, that's more than I make in an average month on MyLot!

Heh. I actually hope so. I think he's one of my band mates' grand-nephews or grandsons or something. His daddy and I chatted. He is a baseball coach for the kids in the area.

Today we get together to play music without an audience, practice the "rough spots," and just have some musical fun

Thanks. Today we'll get together, jam, and discuss how things went. I hope everyone in the band has as much fun as I did.

The Show sounds good. A good applause always makes the performers feel good. The 5 year old too was quite enthusiastic and energetic.
