The snow has stopped but there’s still plenty of it (and plent of ice) on the ground. Getting around town in a car is fairly easy, but walking is no fun at all. We had two days off work last week due to it, which makes it hard going back today.
I practiced with Nancy for several hours on Sunday. This was my first real practice with them. We have an opening gig on Friday and one more practice between now and then. I’m excited about it. And it’s got me thinking about music again. I hope to find time over the break to do a little recording. I have all the sofware I need for now. It’s just a matter of finding the time to use it.
I’ve been busy working on bassplaying.com, a site I’m going to launch early in the new year. It will be a new place to host the BassBook, but also a place to add new articles targeted to specific subjects. If the BassBook is something of an encyclopedia, this will be more like a journal. The focus is on theory and practice, which should set it apart from sites that are mostly about players and gear (though I’m sure we’ll have some of that too). I want to use a lot of PHP on it. But right now I’m hard coding everything.
