I changed my mind. And then I changed it again.
I’m sure I’m not the only one that does this but this is a bit different to me and you know, it may change again.
There’s this ongoing problem with my Ovation guitar and the repair of it. And I’m leaving for Europe in a few months for an open-end tour thru Europe and I wanted to bring it along with me. I’ve thought possibly I could buy another guitar once I’m there (still may, I want to learn Flamenco style playing) and I’m sure I’ll do that. But, what was I to do with the guitars I have here. When I moved to Mexico for about two years I gave away almost all of my equipment. I’m not in the mood to give these others away. And I really can’t take it all.
So, I decided to leave the Ovation behind and bring my Fender electric.
Then, I find out that my Ovation is back from its original repair but now has to be repaired from the original repair!! It looked and felt so good to handle.
I’m in love….
But, I still don’t have it.
I’m looking forward to Europe….playing there is much different from here in the U.S. or at least so I’ve read. They seem to be a much more appreciative, caring and giving audience.
Knowing the little I know of American music in Europe it’s imperative that I have a new CD. Although……just thinking of this, perhaps I can find my Master of my first CD and have some more pressed and I can have two CD’s with me. The first is not much to brag about except that ‘I’ did it. It’s about 10 years old now too!! WOW!
I’ve some considerably better material for this next CD and improved skills….it’s just that there has been one issue on equipment and software after another. Most of those issues were born in Mexico and there wasn’t the resources available to overcome them. I just had to have patience to get back to the States.
As for my recording….well this morning I gave up on waiting for my Ovation and just will go electric and see where that leads….it’s new for me and it’s different. I’m also bending my ear towards a little of the electronic music aspect to it too. The difference is the spice of life.
I’m feeling fortunate to find myself in this unique position.
Time to get some work done…Before I change my mind again.
But before I go here’s a couple sites to visit and thanks for doing so. http://www.peaceloveandbeaches.com and http://www.60plusandfearless.com. My daughter has a GoFundMe page, and I’d greatly appreciate if you’d take a moment to visit, help if possible and consider sharing the link. Thanks! https://www.gofundme.com/single-momkids-with-car-debt.
Peace and love,
John
