I've been busy - taxes, packing everything for storage, got really sick... In fact, I even virtually stopped practicing for almost two weeks - I certainly did no writing
So, now I have to finish one song and then score that and one other (completed) song for a jazz band so that I can perform them and tape them for an audiotion. I also have another tape to make for a percussion audition. I was hoping to use all of next week, but being desperate for $$ I had to take 4 full days of work when it came up - that day job stuff is a killer. Tonite a classical musician is coming over to help me with the scoring, so I have to finish that song when I get home. Plus someone is coming over to meet my cat, (Oh forgot to add this - I;m going to france for a month to study morrocan singing) cause they will pet sit while I am away.
Jesus! (pronounce it "Hey Zeus!") I just got so much to do and I need to get Back In the Groove, literally and figuratively.
The scores have to be completed & copied by... monday evening, 'cos I'll work on tuesday, and then go right to the music school where this jazz band rehearses. It will be my first time to take my writing to a bunch of competent (one is actually a former professional trumpet player) organized musicians. I'm scared and excited about it. I have to sing in front of them all. One (the trumpet player is a friend - so I feel like I have the potential to really embarass myself. Gulp.)
So much to do - I gotta get my Act together. All these show biz metaphors.
Thanks for listening.
