Night of the Living Red

Filmed Last Saturday at Bare Bones Brew Pub in Ellicott City Maryland. We only stayed for the first set. This was the next to last song they did before their set break and I'm glad we didn't miss it (and I'm thankful that my camera had enough memory to capture it).  Andy seems to have made a switch to a Fender Telecaster and it sounds like a good move to me. There was also a keyboard player playing and singing with the band that night and it really added some nice color to the arrangements.

It Doesn't Add Up

That one's so bad it even makes me wince.

More Weighty Issues

Shooting Blanks

Guilty Treasures

It's no secret that I'm a music fan.  The only thing I like more than music is more music.  And the only thing I like even more is more cheap music. I try to buy at least a hundred CDs a year. The way I track this is with those little pieces of different colored tapes I put on the bottom left of the CDs I buy.  Each year I start a new color tape to help me keep it all straight(ish). This year has been particularly good for me.  Here is a sample of what I've bought since July, not counting the 30 or so I picked up with my friend Norm, which were just CDs only with no case or cover material.  Those we got for two for a buck. Most of the rest of the ones in the slide show were a dollar or less each ( some as low as three for a dollar).  There are a few that I paid more for, but they were bought at live music events I attended and the money went right to the artist (as it should).

 Needless to say I'm tracking for well over a hundred this year. I figure I should get all I can now because the way things are going in the music world, soon it will be just ones and zeros over an internet connection and I can't see I how I'll ever be able to purchase that at a garage sale.

I shouldn't talk

Proof

Kathy believes that this is proof positive that Santana is some sort of alien.  Judging by some of the sounds he makes (and smells) I have to agree.

The sacrifices I make for my "art".
