Wrecking Ball. That’s the album that I’m going to focus on as a guitarist. There are a few reasons for this. The first is that I can’t stop listening to it. I think that’s a pretty good reason. The second is that when I hear it, I can hear myself playing it – sitting down in my little studio with my guitar and laptop, slowly learning each part to it. I like the idea of being alone with my guitar somewhere, just playing. It’s peaceful.
Wrecking Ball also strikes me as an album that you can do that with. I don’t know if you could with The Wild, The Innocent and The E Street Shuffle. It just doesn’t feel like it would make sense to play it just on a guitar. Wrecking Ball really lends itself to that.
In other news, I’m going to see the fabulous Jimmy Cupples tonight, so that should be good then there’s the big show at Crown tomorrow night – James Reyne, Joe Camilleri, Daryl Braithwaite and Ross Wilson. If you don’t have tickets to it, too bad, so sad. There is good news though, they’re doin’ another one there the following week. Hop on it.
I’m gonna hop off now (well not literally, my foot is a lot better) and do something with my day. Bye bye
help me, calliope
