umm, this is mostly just a list so i can kind of remember some of what i did this last week. it may not really be that interesting.
So, i’ve done more than my fair share of grumbling, complaining, wretching, sighing, whatever, about how no one plays (live) music in our living room anymore.
(see, people used to hang out at our house and just pick up that guitar in the corner and play…sometimes there would suddenly be more guitars and various percussion. Or (nor really in the living room) when Becky and Jen would sit on the balcony and play, play, play, and people would sometimes come by and sing. then of course it moved to the back porch and the djembe was added.)
i think i’ll have to shut up for awhile.
Let’s see….(shimmery, wavey filmstrip color wash fade to flashback like the old movies)
Last Thursday i got to hear landon play and sing and elise sing, and Sharon play to practice for The Foote’s wedding. it was great and vaguely reminiscent of years past. this was followed by Friday and the Actual Wedding which was Mauve-elous (actually it was coral-ish, but ya know). so this was more of the same music as the day before plus landon playing at the reception.
we drove back Friday night so we could enjoy an Entire Day of music.
Saturday! Taborstock! “Did you know that Tabor was copying Woodstock? I could hear the drums all day…boom, boom, boom.” said the little old lady at church Sunday. hmm, yes, something like that. we heard more Landon Tucker, Radiant Effect, i268, Chasing Eleanor, Abandon Kansas, SP&D, and Stephen Speaks (i may have forgotten someone, eh). Pretty sweet, and only my leg got sunburned.
Sunday i listened to “Gospel Hill and Friends” practice. aka Dr. Ressler, jen, norm, laura, josh, and Bethany, and a banjo player. i watched the practice so i could go to the Tabor Band concert. It was awesome! Angie totally rocked the Rhapsody for Flute. and they did a great suite from Pirates of the Carribean.
OK, so this feel pretty stinkin’ long since i filled this piece of paper at Guitar Recital. so Monday-Thursday will appear in part 2.

I think that we should have an art-fest some time. People should play music and other people should paint or draw or whatever.
Oh, and the thursday that you are having your party, I can't come because Katie has a concert. which I am Glad to go to, but sad that I will miss the fun. sigh...
yeah, live music is great.
