We have an open mic tonight. I'll be recording audio and somebody should be taking video. The past couple of nights I put in about 4 hours of practicing these 3 songs, so I hope to nail it. If not, with that much rehearsal I should be able to gracefully recover from any mistakes. Mistakes always happen, but I find if I practice a lot before hand, my mistakes often just turn into just a bit of a detour...which isn't a bad thing necessarily!

2 of the songs we've done already, but one of them is new.

Our plan is to do at least one open mic a month. IStS should be ready for next month.

I'm a fan of Mark and of Dire Straits and Telegraph Road is one of my favorite songs of theirs...but it's probably been 10 or 15 years since I've listened to it! I'll have to dig that song out... It's definitely possible that song is an influence.

I'm glad I can continue to inspire some folks here! I'll definitely share the recordings once they are available.
