Feat 52: Week #26
an earlier idea that i resurrected and finished. don’t think i’ll really do anything more with it.
 

Feat 52: Week #25
the longer i live the more i lose.

 

Feat 52: Week #24
just a couple ideas/patterns i came up with today and strung together. struggled a bunch with the finger picking pattern. a large part of the problem in recording something the night i come up with it is that i don’t really get a chance to clean it up, practice. at all. but i guess the letting go is the whole point of this.
thought of my friend mark while working on this. he makes playing banjo picking patterns at 240bpm look like a walk in the park.

 

Feat 52: Week #23
trying to simplify. most the time i feel like my mind is a cluttered mess, teased by the small failings that surround me.

 

Feat 52: Week #22
when the scariest thing is lack of control…

 

Feat 52: Week #21
because eventually the glass will be half-empty… sitting on a yazoo coaster next to a boss dr-202.

 

Feat 52: Week #20
the temptation exists… to fix things, people — whether they need it or not.  and we often do it for ourselves… but i am of the camp that believes life is not tidy.  it takes more energy than i have to even begin to counter-act the entropy of daily existence.

 

Feat 52: Week #19
a la mulholland drive… 
anyone?

 

Feat 52: Week #18
late is the new on-time.  this is last week’s song…
sympathy for an insect… in the form of a limerick.

i sit here and strum out some chords
for a hornet that dies on the floor
my bathrobe still on
the morning has gone
and soon it shall sting me no more.

 

Feat 52: Week #17
late is the new on-time. 
this is an instrumental number that is a work in progress for my friend’s short film.  i’m settling in to the lapsteel a bit more…
