So, where have I been? Got a bit sick, mourned Ray Manzarek, slept a lot and watched some really good music. I went and saw Wired play again (twice in fact!) and it’s an experience I always thoroughly enjoy because the musicians in this band are brilliant. I got a free lesson on how to play bass by Travis Clarke when he hung back just as I was expecting him to cut loose (because that’s what’s on the record) but it sounded even better. Sometimes it’s about when not to play and that is one gentleman with impeccable timing. In the engine room on drums is Davey Porter who makes my lame attempts at a drum kit look like the kit is playing me rather than the other way around. I kinda wish I had that force on the kit. The only thing to do is get back on the kit and try again. Hmmmm, there’s something that I should do today.
Instead of a Bruce song have the Doors today. Rest In Peace, Ray and thanks for work like this
For those that are interested, here’s Wired’s facebook page. If you’re in Melbourne “do yourself a favour” https://www.facebook.com/wiredrocklive?fref=ts
