Hey everybody.  So, tonight it happened.  All at once, in the middle of rehearsal,  I didn’t want to be heard.  I didn’t want to play, or sing…at all (quiet gasps from the readers ensue…).  Anyone that knows me well, knows I love to jump in 100 percent.   I wanna play all the instruments, sing some lead, sing a bunch of harmony parts…whatever I can get my hands on.  But sometimes on that rare occasion,  I don’t even want to play.  I’m smart enough to realize that not feeling well, or having a crappy day is totally contributing to this momentary lapse of reason.  But, for a moment, it was clear as day, like a 2 year old that is sick and needs her medicine.  It was crystal clear: “I DON’T WANNA”!!!!!!!!

I don’t know about you, my friends…but, I can think it, react to it, play out the scene in my head, including how I’d break the news to everyone, realize how absurd all that sounds, accept that it’s a temporary emotional low, and try not to forget where we’re at in the song during band practice…all in about 3 seconds!  Lol!!!  I’m so pathetic.  I know.  I admit it outright.   All I could think about afterwards, is how it felt and seemed so “spot on”, while now I know I could poke a million holes in that argument, right?!  That prompted me to think of the Queensryche song, “Silent Lucidity “.  Boy, was that a major hit or what?  If you missed it and you like hair band power ballads, then scope it out.  This was a seriously talented band.  Geoff Tate has an amazing vocal range, and the video sticks in your cranium…very lucid.  Ha ha!!!!!!!
Enjoy your evening of clarity, or insanity.  Just know either one is just a millisecond or a couple thoughts away :).   Things that make you go, hmmm.  That’s another song for a different blog post.  Thanks everybody!   Love you all!!!!!!
