Yesterday's music gig went well. The audience was appreciative and the beer was flowing..My main issue was that my vocal mic was at too low a level, so my vocals were hard to hear. Jack, the band leader, tends to put me at a lower level than himself. Could he be be jealous of my brilliant singing?
There are always egos involved when it comes to music. We closed our performance with ELP's Lucky Man seguaying into Mose's Your Mind is on Vacation. We did an encore.I think it was a version of Midnight Special as done by Led Zeppelin,or however it's spelled. Not my favorite band, but it was a cool tune..I had never done it before, but it was an easy chord progression to follow.
That's my story and I am sticking to it. I hope your week is off to a good start.

I'm glad you had a good time playing yesterday. And hey! You got a little more money for Kitty to spend on wet food! I'm sure she was pleased with you.

@TheHorse Oh, nice! I wouldn't like them washing their "hands" in my water, either.

@DaddyEvil She was actually a good girl last night and stood up to the raccoons.

It sounds like a good time. Does the guy who set the mike get upset if you move it up? I think I would have!

I'm glad the gig went well. I got 9 calls made today; so at least I was productive.
