the weekend for somebody

The trio of honking sax/clarinets and swooping fretless bass and I have nixed yet another practice this afternoon. I couldn't be happier about that. After cleaning a particularly grubby night club this AM (for S who owes me big time) Tom could use some inactivity for a little while. It also presents the dilema of how the tiny drum set is getting to Mother Fools this afternoon. I may see how dorky it will seem to be sitting on the Metro bus with an 18" bass drum in my lap.

Pal Gregory has been gastro-intestinally disabled out in Anaheim this week. Wishing him a speedy recovery although I believe he is up and about as I write. Will be doing the Tom version of RTQE Sun night in his stead and it's looking like his walks might need some attention later.

This gives me an idea for a performance piece:

play a 45 of "Let it Snow" on a record player and at some point smash it to smithereens with big shovel.

listen:
Peter Gabriel - Shaking the Tree
