Other lessons I have learned this weekend.

I was having a lot of trouble with a guitar track last weekend. Sometimes I write stuff that is just a little too difficult for me to play. I was starting to wonder if I would ever be able to get it down in any kind of respectable form. I was thinking I would have to either cop out in some way and settle for something simpler and/or lower quality than I wanted, or else find a guitarist - and I have no idea how I would do that.

But then I practiced the bit for about 15 minutes every evening this past week. On Saturday, I got the track down no problem.

Lesson #1: practicing helps you do things better.

Lesson #2: the best time to do vocal tracks is NOT after 11 straight coffees.

I generally take a large dried and cured bud, put it on a old fashion album cover with two sides to it. Double album or one with some pics in it. And then I slope one side at about a 45 degree slope and break the bud up on it, The seeds will run to the crack , and as you continue to break up the bud , keep knocking the seeds to the crack and pushing the weed back up the slope. Now when you get a crack full, just move the weed off to the side and slope the crack to a film cannister. Way I been cleaning seeds for 30 years or so. No problem.
 
If anyone is interested, here is the tune I was so excited about before. I have probably oversold it now - it still needs a lot of work - but what can I say? I got all giddy about hearing myself on the stereo.

I think this link should work.

Anyone with an excellent memory may recognize that I posted this song at gamelive before as a one-take Youtube vid with guitar and vocal. The lyrics have changed a bit since then.

Mudcat,

Do you put more miles in your bicycle or in your car every year?

Now and before I was self-employed, it is the car by a huge amount. For me to bike more than my daily commute, I would have to make it my only mission in life.

When I was self-employed, it was probably still the car. I think I was averaging about 5000 km (3125 miles) a year in the car. I'd have to be biking like 10 miles every day to surpass that and I never did close to that. I just toodled around my neighbourhood here. I probably spent more hours on my bike but not more miles.
