Got a call to do St Patty's Day at the local pub. Gonna hafta switch STICK night to accomodate it.
It's a 2 hour gig, which, at this bar will mean 3 to 4 hours, if past experience is any indicator.
I played the open mic last night, & pulled out "The Intergalactic Laxative" from the dusty old vault in my headbone. That song's about as "Irish" as I've ever gotten...(Donovan Leech, from "Cosmic Wheels" - hilarious tune)
I noticed that all of these damned back ache drugs I've been taking have really had an effect on the ol' voice box. I feel as dry as old leaves when I sing. I'm gonna spend some time with vinegar & steam & boiled onion water for a cpl days...
Gonna try to keep off them drugs for a cpl days, too, & hope I don't start spasming again. It got so bad Thur night last week that I went to the doc again Fri to get new & stronger prescriptions. These seem to be working though. I've discovered a whole new respect for Lortabs. Haven't had a bad time since I got them.
S'posed to get with the old guitarist tomorrow to work on band stuff, too. I'll have to take it easy on the vox to save up for Wed night. (Hope he's learned "3rd Rate Romance" & "Stickshifts & Safety Belts" or I'll kick him in the shins.)

SMILE - it's the safest way to spread your cheeks!
