Very long day at work today. Perfect chance to come home and sit with the acoustic as a way to de-stress after my shift. Did just that and discovered that "Friend Of The Devil" may well end up in the running for the list of songs that makes the EP. More likely the slower, Counting Crows version than the more sprightly original version by the Grateful Dead, but that's just the way it happens in my world.
Found out something cool at work today that's music related as well. We're going to have Sonia Leigh in the store at noon on Saturday. She's the opening act for The Zac Brown Band that night at Wells Fargo Arena here in town. There's a rumor that she'll be playing an acoustic set in the store. I work at 2 that day, but I'll totally be going in early for the gig around noon. We've got her record as an in-store play this month, and for me, its been one of those slow-burners that the more I hear, the more I like. It's only ten bucks right now, so I'll probably pick one up and have her sign it. Not every day you get that kind of an opportunity, so I might as well take advantage of it while it's there.
Talking with B. last night has me excited about the band again. It's funny, I'm starting to think that the only way to keep my attention focused on that is to have things happening constantly. Otherwise, with all of us being in different places, it's far too easy to lose touch and lose momentum.
Listening to some Smoking Popes on Spotify tonight. I know I mentioned it after seeing them with Alk3 in July, but I really need more stuff by this band.
The rest of the night before sleep will be spent in close proximity to a guitar. Feels like this week is going to end up a good one for the music.
