In honor of The Boss being in town this week I played through as many songs off this album I could pull off. This one gets me every time.

#musiceveryday 70 – Sirens
Recording today, my favorite chord of all time, A6
yay for A6

#musiceveryday 69 – The Great Escape (Light Repose)
#musiceveryday 69
This is one where I’m glad that the four track still works. I don’t know when I did this song, but it was very, very long ago. And it was when I’d use a handheld audio recorder to double up the vocals somewhat randomly.
#musiceveryday 66 – Hail
This morning the most tremendous thunder I think I’ve heard in LA… woke me up and admittedly I was kind of grumpy like “what is that rumbling sound argh” and then I’m so glad I got up in the early dawn and saw this wall of hail approach and flashes so close I decided being on the roof maybe not the optimal place to witness.
Also this is another solo cello improvised thingy.
#musiceveryday 65 – Formerly Known As
Playing cello and that’s all, seeing where it leads…
#MusicEveryday 63 – Forest
#MusicEveryday 63
Playing cello and trying to pull something out of being erh… not the most inspired I’ve ever been. This ended up sort of being like a walk up and down hill which is what I did this morning so there you have it.
#musiceveryday 61 – New String Theory
#musiceveryday 61 – making up a song on the spot. to tell the truth I really like this way of “writing” lyrics. I’m not saying that *just* because I’m lazy… just that some of these off the cuff lines might be a LOT better than something I could turn over again and again.
#musiceveryday 59 – On The Outside In The Nighttime (On The Guitar, In The Afternoon)
#musiceveryday 59 – I’ve never played this song on guitar… UNTIL NOW
Music Everyday 39 – Pushed Together
For this edition of Music Everyday for some reason I took two junk guitars and tuned them to the same-ish note (whichever note would hold, they’re not renowned for their intonation) and pushed their backs together while I played, hoping to create a nice drone-y sound from the back guitar. Not too much drone action but made the crummy top guitar very warm and resonant. I might have my million dollar idea: lashing together guitars for a warmer tone. I mean, it’s not like I composed a masterpiece with this setup or anything. But it’s fun to try new things.
