28/3/06 - Great Western

Well the Badger played last night.
He did not think it was his best.Did a new song - Nobody's Hero by Rush. Forgot the words, and a few cock-ups in the playing, but it went ok.Finished with standards, Behind Blue Eyes and Pinball Wizard - Both went well.
I was not happy with my performance overall. I should not have started with the new song.Feedback was that my vocal technique needs improving in so much that I need to stay attached to the mic! I Will try this advice on Thursday. I also need to SLOOOOOW down.Stay wrapped up!

New open mic

I have found a new one, it is held regularly on Thursday night and is in Warwick.I discovered it last night when I was driving home.
Some of the Western crowd were there so I was at home. I did not "perform" this week, but will do next as I have been winding up the guys who's kit it is about his pruning of the rocky bit in Behind Blue Eyes.
So I will have to do that.so long for now!

Update!

20/3/06
Well that was short.Seems like 10 minutes since I was last at work. Anyhow the week-ends fun started on Friday with a few beers in the fine local pub the Horse and Plough.Saturday was quite, spent the day building a mini car. My son is in an egg race for school, so he's entered it and I have to build it! Dad's and lad's eh!
The chassis we (I) built last week, this week is the turn of the body work. I understand he has the paint now and the papier mache body will be transferred into Mr. Beans car.Sat Evening was at the local Rugby club.
I was there watching England v Ireland. now I am not normally a rugby fan, but I do like it when England play and they also had a beer festival. 24 beers and 1 cider to enjoy!We lost the rugby, but I did enjoy the beersSunday well the lads team lost again 1:3. We did play well, but lost it in the second half defensively.And that was that, now in office, just had lunch, and planning to go to the gym later to do a spinning class with a sauna session afterwards.Tonight is Prison Break, so a late night after an early start, oh well!

Great Western - 7/3/06

Well last night was a lot of fun again. Down at the Great Western for the open mic night, did my three songs, mostly got them right!I was playing my new accoustic guitar due to the damage on my previous one. Any how it sounded alright, a little bright, but nice. I will play it better next time as I only brought it yesterday and it was short of one strap pin.
Set list: (oh so very grand)
Don't hurt yourself
Behind Blue Eyes
Pinball Wizard
I shall attempt some new songs next time, may even plan some accoustic AC/DC.
 Wee will see.
Off to do what I am supposed to do.
