Crazy French Girl at Eddie Bo Dean's
After being sick for a week, it was nice to get back to an open mic venue... Tonight was Eddie Bo Dean's again. Honorable mention goes to Rebecca (the host) and her fabulous singing, also to Greg for playing Lady in Red (hilarious but well done), and some more Bruce Springsteen. Another fellow, Kali (I gotta learn to spell his name) played fretless bass quite well, as well as guitar and singing. I saw him at Eddie's the first time I went and he sang songs with a keyboard - I'd say he is multi-talented.
Greg brought his friend Chantal tonight and she was had a great time watching us and the other talented folks play. I was hoping a friend of mine would come as well... next time I guess. I'm pretty flippin' tired now, so I'll end off with the songs I played:
Pearl Jam - Daughter
Jesse Rivest - Deadbeat Blues
Jesse Rivest - Crazy French Girl
These are the only three songs I know in an open G tuning. Daughter was well liked, however people definitely like Deadbeat Blues, even though I screwed up the lyrics twice! And I received some comments on my slide playing in Crazy French Girl. I'll record Crazy French Girl soon, I am just finalizing the parts of the song. Good times!
