i am writing in here to repair my relationship with my computer
i’ve been playing with a drummer and bass player who can read my mind. it’s sounding great and i’m realizing all these things i either
can do now
or don’t have to do because they’re taking care of it
like for instance, i can
a) stop playing sometimes
b) not maintain the groove
c) SOLO
d) not be responsible for basslines
e) eat and drink during songs**
also, i was going to post a picture of band practice but not until i figure out a better lighting situation in there
linda perhacs & friends, i’m the backup singer you can’t really see
a myspace friend sent me a video of chris garneau covering my song “sugar” in paris. thank you chris!
i’m playing lead guitar in choir, you guys. lead guitar. i’ll be shredding my way through parallelograms on october 7th at the red cat.
apple pie season is in full swing.

Here is the audio
Linda Perhacs - Parallelograms
The Ladies Choir was asked to perform Parallelograms by Linda Perhacs at an upcoming tribute show. I listened to Parallelograms and couldn’t figure out what was going on so I took it apart, which ended up being helpful to the choir. But I’m still not sure it’s right, especially the middle part on the second page… I wrote my best guess at the rhythm but I really want to know if she knew what she was doing? The second half of the first verse is not real. Sometimes I wrote dotted quarter notes and sometimes I tied an 8th note to a quarter note, also the repeat sign is on the wrong page.. Look how cute it looks small! (click to view larger.)

life-altering realizations about the beatles
just now i was listening to yesterday, and it ocurred to me that when he says “i said something wrong, now i long for yesterday,” that he’s actually telling us that he said something wrong (and wished he hadn’t.) obviously. but i always assumed he was asking her if something was wrong. like in norwegian wood when they’re asking and saying.
i said, “something wrong?”
