Wasn’t the best show… it was ok

I can’t sleep, so I thought I’d blog. I am in Boston in the W hotel and am currently raiding the mini bar. It is snowing pretty hard outside. I came here for my boyfriend’s work holiday party.

I think that one of the reasons that I had such a good show was that I have a new amp that my brother gave me his old Fender Princeton Chorus amp. It’s loud as hell. It was definatly the first time that I felt I could really hear my guitar and because of that I played better. I only really started playing an electric guitar a few years ago.

I hate to admit it, but before I went on Bob introduced me and said that if they had not heard me play before, that they were in for a treat. He said really flattering things and it made me more confident. I hate to think that I would need my ego stroked.

It was also a total trip to find my picture and a few words about me when I opened the Fairfield Weekly. It was another assurance that I hopefully am doing something right.

I guess I’ll go to sleep now. Tomorrow I am putting up a lot more stuff on my site.

On thursday I played a show at Two Boots in Bridgeport, CT with Broadcast Hearts. I am uploading the videos I took from the show. It felt like a really good show to me. I messed up a few times though.

Right before the show, I was hanging out with my best friend Gregg. He kept on singing a line from my song “Diamond”…it goes “In the time between now, the time between now” over and over. He asked me “What is in the time between now?” I told him I don’t know…the time between now…and just then when I said now. We were joking around about it. When I sang the song at the end of the set, I looked at him when that part of the song was coming up and we both started laughing.

After the show I set up my flip video camera, and sat down with the Fairfield County Weekly newspaper. I opened it up and found a picture of me! I had no idea that the show was going to be in the Weekly. It was a really nice surprise! I’ll put that up as well.

I put up some videos of an open mic night at the Acoustic Cafe in Black Rock, CT. It includes videos of John Torres, Larissa DeLorenzo, Darian Cunning, Gregg Iwaszkiewicz, Robert Beam and Keith Rogerson.
