What are you listening to right now?

Well! I've got almost too much to work with here.

I don't ride often. Our friends are pros and I take their directions. I'm rusty at rough trail and woods riding. Horses seem to know that I should get "easier" treatment - Yes, I talk to them, nuzzle up before ride and give them treats. I threw away my last pair of cowboy boots (Justins) some years ago. I just wear my trail stompin' tennies. Horses don't complain.

#1 Goal - Not have this happen (it won't)

IMHO. Note on that vid: Those were "tamed" horses, from my perspective. I always get up close and introduce myself (never jump from a gate, just haul up.) The guy might have been an idiot, but he did do a good landing with a roll, look at his right foot hit the ground for safety, after he flies off and goes into a safe tumble (at about 0:18 on the vid. 0:28 shows the "fall" and right foot stabilizing with a good roll a little better.) Staged. IMHO. Always fun. Horse looked bored.

As always. Do fun within your commonsense limits.
 
I love playing "Nadine" on open nights (the bass with it's pauses at the right time is so right (Willie Dixon?.))

Folks that wanna do it often say "You probably don't know this Waylon tune. Just get goin' - ummm, OK, :p , I'll figure it out. BTW. Ever heard the original by Chuck Berry?"

I do OK on background vocals. GEEZ. I've had to step in sometimes to cover for these folks that were tryin'. It's all fun and I got many free beers for not pulling the carpet out from under some of these folks that were trying to ring a bell.

I DO admire folks that admire music and try their hand at it. Baby steps can lead to incredible stuff. Not always, truly. Worst thing, IMHO, is karaoke bars (and very good clubs and "country clubs") that have the same screachers every week. OUCH.

bad mix on drums, only mix I could quickly find.
 
After takin' the dawg in for his annual "lube and oil change" today (he's good,) we did some tree and scrub clearing. This came to mind -

Then, as I cleaned up, I brought this up (always a good hoot.)

;) :p I still have all my fingers and dawg has great hearing because I put those pesky ear plugs in his ears when he supervises the wood-work. Hey, it's a northern thing. We rolled out in a "top of the line" SUV. Tomorrow, weather permitting, I'll haul the wood out with a real truck. Just our way of takin' care of business, goofin' around AND making it back home safe. AND, missing being on Flamands.
 
In just a little while I'll be listening to Josh Groban from my 7th row perch on the floor of the Lakefront Arena here in the Big Easy! I've wanted to see him live for many years and I now get my chance! Be still my beating heart!
