The READIN Family Album
Me and Gary, brooding (September 2004)

READIN

Jeremy's journal

Somehow, Cleveland has survived, with her gray banner unfurled -- the banner of Archangelsk and Detroit, of Kharkov and Liverpool -- the banner of men and women who would settle the most ignominious parts of the earth, and there, with the hubris born neither of faith nor ideology but biology and longing, bring into the world their whimpering replacements.

🦋 Practice

Jerry and I practiced this evening for the first time in about a month, and it was productive. We're going to play the open mic at Tierney's next week; our set will be chosen from this list:

  • Weary Day
  • The Louisville Burglar
  • Bed on Your Floor
  • K.C. Moan
  • John Hardy was a Desperate Man

There are other songs we can play pretty well but those five are solid. If you're around Montclair next Thursday evening, come by and check us out.

(The fiddle lessons that I have just, in the same past month as we have not practiced, started taking, seemed to really be paying off -- along with the increased amount of practicing I am doing on my own to support them: I was feeling much more confident with rhythms and starting to see some new ornamentations I could apply to vary the melodies and harmonies I play. Also, double stops! Few and hesitant to be sure, but palpable double stops.)
