Well, as you know, Rob's blog is all shut up and Peter is in Aussie. That just leaves me here.
I did three hours of guitar practice yesterday. I've already done 1/2 an hour this morning and will add to that. I'll also do some violin practice.
I'm off to the 'old time' and 'bluegrass' jam this afternoon and I'm taking both violin and guitar. I need to give them both a chance to play. It's important to get out and have a play.
Well, I'd better get that violin out and give it a good warm up.
Sorry, but it's just a short little post this morning.
Ciao.

No wrong notes please. Though, in music, there really are no wrong notes.

Good on you for keeping this little blogging community alive.

It's nice to see that you haven't forgotten me. Actually, I must tell you that Heaven is overrated. Garden Road was better. I see your younger brother has worked out who he will leave his cello to - yes, I do keep an eye on posts and comments around the blogs. He'd be better off doing more practice than rushing to get up here!
Mr. Linford
Back from the jam.
Faaaaaaaaaa....!*
Lowest common denominator.

Oh, shit! I feel sorry for you.

Ah, The The what a The The pain!

I thought my medical condition was the worst pain in the arse until I went to yesterday's old time music jam. It should have been called 'Music for Beginners'. Hey, if you want to get into improvised music, at least learn to play a simple 12 bar blues chord progression. Also, check out a few keys, and their I, IV, V7 and VI chords (VI might be dominant 7 or minor). At a jam you should be ready to 'bluff' your way through some tunes you don't really know. Come prepared, with a few skills. Knowing a few scales would help.
Good advice there. It is supposed to be a jam, and not a beginner music lesson.
Phillip Edward Nis
Have you heard from the other two bloggers?
Bin Hire
No.
I don't have a link to Rob's blog anymore. I assume it's all closed up for good. There was a comment with his name on it, but that'll most likely be a scam, so I deleted it.
Peter is out hiking in the Aussie outback somewhere.
I got an anonymous comment today, but deleted that too, just to be on the safe side.
Good The The on you. The The it pays The The to be The The safe.
The The The Guy
Yes. It's great to have you reliable old friends around. Thanks guys.
230 hours of practice done so far this year!
What a great effort!
Phillip Edward Nis
You The The the man The The!
The The The Guy
Well done! That's quite an achievement.

It may not get you a flat next to Mr. Linford in Heaven, but well done!

Still hearing the voices mmm?

A mystery.

Flattery will get you nowhere!
We are in Adelaide having ended our train journey this morning. It was excellent and I thoroughly recommend it,
Robert will no doubt be pissed off that our compartment didn’t flood with sewage from the neighbouring compartment. I thought that Catholics were supposed to be cheerful and optimistic. He must be eating the wrong communion hosts.
What gave you that idea. Go to a protestant meeting if you want false insipid cheerfulness. They have those wrong communion hosts too. Ah hmmm...anyway I'm happy its going well. All the best. Cheerio.
I blame those pentacostal scales.
Pentatonic scales are nice, don't knock them. Just finished an hour practice on the cello ending with a few.
Don't get me started on the Pentacostal ones. Just watched a video saying the reformation was all about money too!
Oh!
I thought that after all that you’d end with a “phew!”.
Well, you indulge Richard so much maybe you should charge him money for it too.
Reading all these comments makes me glad I’m 3225 kms away.
What type of scale is 'a few'?
Depends where you're standing at any one time.
Is that one of your Buddhist sayings?
What if you were standing on one leg?
Would it then be closer like only 1612 and a bit kms away?
If you were laying down say, would 3225 kms seem longer or shorter?
Damn this ‘The Elephant In The Room’ chardonnay is good.
It comes in a 250 ml can you know.*
* No innuendos please.
Mr. Linford loves you, Peter.
I’ll try to find a supplier in Wellington and get you and Shelley some.
Hey, good job you had an available can.
Good planning.
Chardonnay not Mr Linfords.
You missed a possessive apostrophe.
(Mr Linford's)
No, if you read the comment properly you would see that in this context Mr Linfords is a plural.
Sounds like bullshit to me.
Splat!
