41. the true "gig"

Mon Dec 2, 2019, 01:24 PM

Dec 2019

will happen in January, as churches now of course, are working on Cantatas. But I am having a blast with them. Very small group, but a very happy group. I tend to shy away from "old religious songs" as they are hard for me to feel and vocalize. The Christmas season is actually helping, they are working on songs I know, I feel, and I can contribute. I have been at 3 of their practices now and someone said at each one, "Let's do Doug's song." I see they want a break from Cantata practice and I need the Cantata practice from them. So, I ask , "which one? " as I have sheet music. Sometimes we do the song that will be the gig,, sometimes we laugh and goof off. Heck we even did "On the Cover of The Rolling Stone" already!! Whenever this side journey ends, I will let them know how much they are helping me, I want to tell them now, but I just feel a certain vibe with this group that I do not want to disrupt at this time.

As always lebowski,,and all,,

TY

Koz
