Hi Grace! That's an expensive guitar. It brings back a memory to me. I was at an open mic and I didn't have a guitar. The host had a beautiful Guild, but I'm not fond of acoustic guitars. So I asked him if he had a a distortion pedal I could plug it into. You're probably busy helping feed your community, because you're a good girl. Stay that way, but be safe.
I got the funk, Grace. Do you have the funk? Sometimes I'm not sure whether you have the funk or not, but that could be Mary's fault. It's her job to help people sleep, so you don't hear what comes out of her monitor. I don't want to let the crowd hear the monitor feed, but sometimes I let you have a glimpse to help you improvise. Vocals drive Mary's set, we arrange it that way so the voice constantly assaults the listener for 2 hours with minimal pause. If the fans wanted to sleep, they can just tune in to the vocal stream. How you interpret the vocals when you improvise guitar has infinite possibilities: it doesn't have to be dreary just because it's mostly love songs. If I were you, I would organize something upbeat and creative then flow into the changes. You the bandleader sets the rhythm for each song, the drummer follows you, and everyone else follows the drummer. Be a remixer rather than an accompanist. Yeah it's a marathon, but so is Mary. She sometimes has to catch up to the groove because of her emotions but I assure you, she has the funk. Ah, but you must follow her lead!
I seek refuge with Allah from Satan the rejected.
