American Idiot - GreenDay

Had the third of three consecutive rehearsals with three different bands last night. Monday night was the blues band - spent a couple of hours taking apart a simple Chuck Berry number (Never Can Tell), reallocating parts for fiddle and sax in the absence of keyboards, then putting it back together again in a form that none of us will probably remember come the gig this Saturday night 😕. Tuesday night was the punk covers band - just a great blast through the first part of the set for the upcoming gig on July 5th. Bit of a weekly therapy and offloading session as much as anything..... Last night was the folk rock band, and we started work on a couple of the original songs written by the guitarist and singer when they were a duo. The addition of acoustic bass and fiddle, plus the bouncing ideas off each other was the greatest night of the three - recorded the happenings on my H4n and getting it sent out to everyone later today. It's currently chucking it down with rain, and I'm in the local cafe with a latte and toasted teacake doing a bit of 'admin'........😉👍
