Finders Keepers, Losers Weepers - Elvis Presley

Hi I was AWOL most of yesterday. Early gig and it ran overtime. This morning, tropical storm prep. What do I like about it? Avery has control of his instrument, He is technically proficient Good stage presence and audience connection Plenty of passion He's quite young, and obviously talented, but I think he could have delayed the fireworks and played the head without embellishment at first and then built up to the climax more gradually. I probably did the same thing when I was his age, so it's not necessarily a criticism. As we mature, we tend to figure that out. Also, shows like that demand instant audience excitement. I've seen other excerpts on the UTube, and singers tend to do the same thing, so I guess it's the way that show works. I hope he has a long career. Notes ♫

Once is enough for me

||:Pwal:|| where did you find that? It's so bad it's amusing. Back to the game. We played this in school band - IMO the music doesn't really say "flying mouse" (aka bat). But that's just me. Die Fledermaus Overture - Johann Strauss II

Gunhild is Nice

Shins - Legs Legs - ZZ Top

A cymbal minded person?

It sold much better than the udder one.

The all-time most requested song for sax players... Night Train - Jimmy Forrest A bit closer to the version I play

Korg (according to Marvel comics) But can he really stop a drone?

Mosquitoes are definitely flies... Superfly - Curtis Mayfield

I Neil before the author of that one ^^^

And finally - newsworthy today

This one for Bapu

True story: Mrs. Notes came from a family of 8 - 4 girls & 4 boys (I got pick of the litter BTW). When they were young, the boys had a running gag by putting "ness" at the end of words. So if you were being fruity, you exhibited fruit-ness. If you were sad, you were suffering from blue-ness. Studying hard for finals gave you a case of burnout-ness Little sister Lisa was an athlete and her nickname was "Pea" So one day, at a ball game, she was up at bat, and without thinking, the 4 boys shouted and repeated, "Give them some Pea-Ness" Then they realized the pun and it got even funnier.

Drown In My Own Tears - Ray Charles

Happy wife = happy life.

Shout - Isley Brothers

I guess this goes in the pun category

Religious music altars my mind.
