Shhh. Don't wake the family.
It's nearly midnight, and I just got back from a night out with a friend. I met up with her at a local music venue (a.k.a dive bar) at which an all-girl punk/rock band was playing.
Now that I'm home, everyone is sleeping. It's peaceful and I can hear the rain on the sky light and the roof. (Well, I can sort of hear it over the ringing in my ears). But now I have an itch to plug my cheap electric guitar into my cheap amp and tear it up. But that would, indeed, wake the family, so maybe I shouldn't.
Watching the grrls was awesome. The drummer was awesome. About the singer and guitarists, I kept thinking: I could do that. And oh how fun it would be. So if you don't hear from me again, you'll know that I waved goodbye to my teaching job, grabbed my axe, and hit the road (with family in tow, of course).

Can I be the base player - I promise I won't sing!
Can I please be a backup singer? I'm so ready.
No pressure, though. If that doesn't work out, I may join the derby circuit (inspired by Whip It).
r/e the family:
all bands need roadies!
I will totes play keyboard with you!

I'll just be a groupie and follow you everywhere!
It sounds like it was a terrific night :)
GEW, I'm dying to know what the name of your band would be!
You have to take Gaga and Papa, too.
(My word verification is "unote.")
If you need a scientist grrl guitarist, I'm in. I've always wanted to have a band like that.
Methinks someone was buzzed and blogging.....
I don't think that when I see musicians, I think that when I see Project Runway."Pfft. I could SO make that."
Oh! And since I'm thinking about it right now...I was watching some gay Jennifer Aniston movie on the plane ride home. She plays a florist who falls for some dude with a dead wife. It sucked and I didn't finish it, BUT the cool thing was that ONE OF MY LAMPS was in the flower shop where JA's character worked! I saw all these shots OF MY LAMP!!! IN A MOVIE! How cool is that? I feel like SUCH a rock star.
All you need is a long term babysiterrr!
