The bass gig started saturday, and of course before rehearsal I decided to practice violin. The room was a semi-large basketball court/auditorum with a wonderful "built-in-reverb" and my violin sounded incredible in that room, Im shocked how good the tone was and was wondering how good it really could sound until now. (That is to say the sound was good not and not necessarily the playing, usually I practise at home with a mute on). The session went well and we have successfully managed to get togather a competent group of players, so it was fun for a first rehearsal but much preperation needs to be done before the next session.

Muppets arranged for violin? sounds like fun!

Ill close with this poem, I found a craving to write something regarding my current endeavors:

pepperoni pizzas baking
and typing computer code
all the years in the making
and playing lydian mode

giving guitar lessons and eating ramen
trying to save money on food and serving Mello Yellow...
and all the other things I have to do this year to someday buy a cello
