Dear Hedshaker,
How're you doing, mate! I hope that all is going real well 4 U these days. How's the music doing? Just last nite, went over to my nephew's and jammed down on an electric 6-string. I didn't take my 12-string 'cause I still have to put 6 more strings on it. So I used a guitar that he had already. We had a blast and I had a bit too much Vodka and Tonic, with a touch of lime. It was his birthday party. I gave him a $500 gold tie clasp that my grandmother gave me when I was 11 years old. It is pure 18K gold. Not gold-plated at all. I had it appraised and that's where I came up with the $500. The jeweler told me. I have another tie pin I can use, so I'll be okay. Where I'm going, I'll hardly need a tie clasp. Anyways Hedshaker, one of the things he got me for my birthday was a portable amp that can fit on your belt. {It's got a clip for your belt}. I can use it for either mic or guitar, or even both, since I have a junction jack {2 to 1}. Music's going well. I got the sheet music for Hozier's Take Me To Church. Am going to give that to my nephew's girlfriend. She wants to learn it badly. I am impartial to the song lyric-wise. It's a nice tune though.
When I went there, I got to see my two great-nieces too. That was only the 3rd time in their lives that I've gotten to see them. They live in Colorado. They always live out-of-state. They used to live in Atlanta, Georgia. I'm in Phoenix, Arizona. Hey, I know that you are in England, but I don't remember if you mentioned which city? Is it north of London? Heck, you and Alwight live close together. I used to keep in touch with a friend in Scotland. We used Yahoo to chat back and forth with webcams and mic headsets. It was really cool and it was FREE. Anyway, I played some Cat Stevens, and Elton John, and some Fleetwood Mac, etc.
How is the weather lately, where you are at? It was 85 here. Tomorrow 87, I believe. It's suppose to get up to 95 this week. I can't wait to get my car back. It's in the shop. Que sera! Man, it must be nice to be in Europe. You are so close to France and Spain. It's awesome. Have you done any traveling Hedshaker? I hope you've checked out some nearby places.
Oh man, I forgot that I was supposed to stay on subject or whatever you want to call it. Well, you can read about some of that in some of my previous posts here. I just slipped. I'm loving Venus' brilliance this time of year, as an evening star, and am definitely looking forward to the blood red moon on April 4th's Lunar Eclipse! Pretty rare. Four of them in one year! Just awesome. I think you should get a good viewing there, as long as it isn't cloudy.
Well, Hedshaker, I'm going get hitting the sack soon here. Will close for now. I hope life is still treating you well and that you are joyful!! Best Wishes Indeed!!
Michael
