Friend Sickness.

One of my few good friends in this world has been keeping sick. I dont know what happened. Actually i do now. I put slightly heavier strings and the bridge could not bear em...so it raised up. Yes i speak of my strat. As a result had to play the important galeej gig with K's guitar which....is a good guitar...but wasnt there. BLM and K gave in some suggestions on how to cure it which seem to work with whatever limited tools i have. Has helped but with a proper king size screwdriver it'll be perfect. As i sit here keying in this post i keep glancing over to see my friend standing on its stand. It seems to be gently weeping. You'll be back soon.
The gig was bad. Apart from guitar issues the band was very untight. Considering there was comparitively a musically seasoned crowd we played really badly. The worst part is, that people still liked it. I hope we get what we need in our jams to become a pro band on stage. The talent and skill is there. But a very important something is missing. All we can do is keep working and hope to put our act together. It was a good christmas day. Gave the guitar sine treatment too which seemed to work. Plus got a sweater that mom sent through an uncle. Missed her as soon as i put it on. Anyway the year is almost over. It was a good year. Shall write about it in the next post.
