I had a long paragraph here, and as I am about to make this blog public... I realize that this rant might hurt a certain someone's feelings.... so I am removing it....

BUT..... it just so happens that this week I have a renewed interest in writing music. When I get done with my traveling, my number one priority will be starting a band, and recording as much music as humanly possible. I will most likely end up in some shithole basement in Bushwick, sleeping on a mat on the floor surrounded by instruments.... but it makes me real happy just thinking about it.

I am currently debating which portable instrument I should be teaching myself while I am on the road. So far only the harmonica comes to mind, though historically I have no talent with the Harmonica. I'm pretty sure that MATT P. will want to kill me after a few days of having to listen to me struggling to play "Mary Had a Little Lamb" for hours on end.

Do people make fifes any more? I need a very light instrument.
Piccolo? Clarinet? How light is a clarinet? That would be ideal!

74 days to go!
