I’m scared.<\/p>\n
I have to sing a whole night of songs tomorrow night, and I know I can do it, but I’m worried simply because I haven’t done that (sing the whole night) in over a year.<\/p>\n
We’re gigging as a trio tomorrow night (which means a nice fat payday), and it’s downtown on 6th street during the ROT rally (a big biker event this weekend in Austin). It should be an awesome crowd.<\/p>\n
It’s weird, as much as I know I can do certain things, vocally, I don’t want to be overconfident. I realize that most people won’t notice an out-of-tune note here and there, but I will, and being the guy I am, I want to be as close to perfect as possible, because it adds weight to demanding that of others.<\/p>\n
It should be a great time, though.<\/p>\n
We auditioned two more people, both very different. First was a bassist named Luis – he was good, sang pretty well, and won major points from me because his tester riff was “Glamour Boys” by Living Colour. Then we had a singer, Rob – more of a karaoke singer than a musician, but not terrible. Too inexperienced to join the band without other musical skills, though. I won’t take anyone fronting the band who can’t sing better than me, especially if they don’t play an instrument.<\/p>\n
That’s all for now…come see the show tomorrow night at 10pm at the Iron Cactus – 6th and Trinity. The Musical Schizo comes to life… \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
