* I love it when a plan comes together. (In particular, I love it when I listen to a tune just before practice and work out bits of it; then approach the practice room and hear the same recording blasting through the PA while the lead guitarist is doing the exact same thing.)
* Practice got considerably less productive when a second guitarist showed up. Oh well.
* Yesterday's impulse sheet music purchase is ALSO COMPLETE BOLLOCKS. I may have just paid 22 bucks to learn that I should be playing an F where I was previously playing a B-flat.
* There is a certain kind of guitar strap that I am a complete idiot and don't know how to use. Sadly, I also impulse-purchased one of those yesterday.
* Yesterday's question of "We've got something, now what the hell is it?" has been answered. So did the attendant questions of "How the hell did we end up THERE?!" and "How do we get out again after that?"
* I CAN sing and play at the same time, at least well enough to keep us all on track. Hey, somebody had to do it.
* I can also bounce while playing, at least intermittently. Given the shoes I'll be wearing, I'm really hoping that won't be a requirement.
