Ok, so today I came home from work exhausted and stressed out. So I worked out, I ate healthy, and then it was time to put on my shiny pants, grab my guitar and head to my friends house for our "Band Practice" by band practice, what I mean is that usually Ali plays her songs and I listen and say how I like it, and then we try to write a song together, get half way through and then the next week we forgot what we did and start over.
Today was different. Today I had my shiny pants on, I was a rock star. Seriously, I bought these jeans a few months ago, they are skinny jeans that have a shimmer to them. They almost look leather. Almost. They are so rock star. So when I wear them, I think, Hey now, Im a rock star! and then I get my game on and go play. No joke.
Because today was the most productive band practice for me that I have had in months. That could be that I am reaching a point in my counciling where I am finally starting to deal with some of my issues and get them under control, and also I am no longer feeling depressed and moapy. Since band practice is the day after counciling, its been the hardest day to concentrate on things for a monthish. I am usually emotionally drained on Wednesday, and my music is totally emotional. I can't play well if I aint feeling it. Today, I felt it.
We didn't write anything new, or attempt to. I busted out my old stuff Ali had never heard and I played it like there was no tomorrow. Then Ali played a few. Ali is my band mate. Our band is called Naomi's Bandits. We were talking about a farewell concert because she might move. I think we should do it any way.
Any way, I have never really taught anyone to play any of my songs, and neither has Ali. so Ali has her songs, and I have my songs, and we have our unfinished songs that we've written together , but tonight I think we finally became a band.
Because I finally taught Ali how to play one of my songs, one of her favorites of my songs, and we played and sung together, and then she harmonized, and it was magic, it was like- Wow!! finally after all these practices we are actually playing together like a band. She totally rocked it!! I think its the shiny pants, and she was wearing a hoody which is so gangsta, so it totally rocked. Or it could be that this one song was my one song that swears and we were just having fun singing such and angry song. Any away, yeah, Naomi's Bandits. When we find a place to play our first gig, we will be coming to a stage near you. Rock on. NIGHT!!! PS spell check is broken. and I am a horrible speller. Sorry for the errors, but I am not going to try to fix this without help.
