Morning walking for coffee sober legs in my new addias sneakers. Got them at the employee store sale yesterday 59% off.
Iām studying! I have a decent foundation of musical theory, but never took any real systematic or overtly theory-based approach to harmony, I always went with my intuition. Itās doing a great job at enriching my knowledge, providing explanation and background for some things that I only ever did intuitively, and expanding my palette of ideas. Itās written with a focus on guitar and jazz/pop/rock genres, but applies more widely than that, so it can both challenge me with diversity, in that thatās not my usual focus, but yet the core is still very relevant to instruments and genres I am more comfortable with. I am hoping it helps me develop a better sense of arrangement in general that can help me not just with guitar but for orchestra, chamber music, and other instrument configurations in general.
I would like more formal music education at some point, but for now this is more in my financial and time budgets
SO SCARY to see what this addiction can do to ourselves until you take a look back at it with sober eyes
Going thru pics I found thisā¦ night before I gave up drinking and drugging that landed me in the hospital.
Proud to say 262 days sober! !
Holy cow!
Congratulations on 262 days
Thanksā¦ SO SCARY to see what this addiction can do to ourselves until you take a look back at it with sober eyes
Omg! Those are some bad battle wounds.
Congrats on 262 days!
Looks great brother! That is a nice axe youāve got there. Sounds like a good project, weād love to hear some jamming if you make a little recording!
Oh the guitar is part of the book coverā¦ but yes, I hope to work up the courage to share more of my stuff one of these days.
Wow that is one heck of a realistic picture! Good to hear it - looking forward to hearing about your progress
Yes, lol. Iāve almost tried to pick up the pen pictured, but realized just in time it wasnāt real
What was the outcome on your ankle roll?
I fractured the same bone in two places. Luckily the breaks werenāt bad and the bone is still in tact. The orthopedist let me know I didnāt need a cast and could put full weight on it when Iām ready. Iām super happy with the diagnosis.
Thanks for asking
Well, yowch! I am happy, as are you no doubt that you donāt need a cast. Iāll send you some vibes for stronger bones resulting from the healing.
And look at the sweat on the floor (cranky English ), proove your working hard!
I have to push myself to go to the gym againā¦
Whoa! Salty, my eyes havenāt recovered from that meme face yet, what you trying to do?!
