Progress and Chord progressions

I woke up dis' monin...

yeah anyway, couldn't meditate. Fidgetting, angry, unsedated by dope. Should I switch the TV on? Yes..No..Yes..No...Another addiction to decide whether to give into or not.

Irritating.

Gave into it, there was a program just started about some rap kid trying to give up smoking dope. Is that serendipity or what? Just what I needed especially as he went through the worry about whether he could still rap without "blazing a tree" (kid is a shite rapper anyway but- you know, kids stuff...) 900 gigs, not one without a spliff.

UK TV Channel 4 in the morning almost every programs for kids is about drugs.

Anyway this is addressing my BIGGEST problem regarding giving up weed. For the last 15 years its always been smoke a bong, let it out through the guitar or onto canvas. The idea of trying without has always been against my religion. The downside is never getting anything finnished, and also prolonged periods of depressed inactivity and staring into space.

This TV show gave me the perfect gentle encouragement to give it a go and I had arranged a jam with a friend of mine who has just sorted himself a fantastic studio nearby. His brother was also about who is very dedicated to the band he is in and kindly let me have a go playing through one of these. Jesus it felt good. Messa Boogie Dual Rectum what? Its like that US grunt saying "tear me a new asshole" isn't it?

Anyway I was totally dual rectumed away. Had two buttholes by the time I finnished. Beautiful. And I had a go on his Fender Jaguar, though to be honest as long as its got humbuckers and an OK action I am happy with most guitars. My main guitar is the same one I got out of a friends mums catalogue when I was 16. 21 years and I'm still happy with it. When I've got the money at the right time I'm going to get one of these I think. I'm not in a hurry.
At home this evening we set about serious jamming towards songwriting. My friend had to leave cos he was mashed, I'm still fresh as a daisy. Great day. Drug free.

I haven't played through my amp in ages and wondered how it would sound after a grands worth of Dual rectumfying. This amp is 30 watts and cost me 30 quid, off the dad of the same friend. It still sounds the bollocks, its just not loud enough for gigging. I've bought and sold Marshalls, Laneys, everything over the years. I think I'm going to try and build the amp and a power amp into a new cabinet.

Jesus. I wrote this blog almost word for word in January. Am I repeating myself? No wonder Mr. Du Monde is getting bored... Ah well you can read or not-up to you, as I said live on TV the other day. ha ha ha ha I'm a Rockstar innit?
