Riffing off of my own (mild) guilt about the frequency of my posts, and inspired by Friko's terrific post, I show up here today.
It is only to say, though, that I am still not really here...
Ruth, I am thrilled by your comments and questions and absolutely intend to answer them, it's just that...
I'VE GOT THE MUSIC IN ME!!!!
I've been learning and playing an acoustic bass guitar over the last few months and now I can actually play a few things. I'm so excited about it, I can hardly stand myself. And I can't stop right now, even for you. I have a great teacher named Tradd who comes weekly. I've discovered TONS of terrifically helpful videos on YouTube from musicians who play as I do, or even professionally, and who post fingerings and lessons and great stuff I can play with. (...'with which I can play' does not fit my image of the usual bass player. )
So, for my faithful readers (no, you won't see the 'Follow' widget here), please bear with me a little longer. I'll be back.
