In the studio with Michael and Phil this afternoon for a good therapeutic thrash after all the panicky London work.
For three old guys we certainly know how to make a racket. Unfortunately I've not yet mastered my new camera sufficiently to figure out how to take videos (What me? Read a manual?), so you'll have to wait to suffer that until another time.
What I have realised is that amps and guitars are fucking heavy and that as I no longer gig regularly every hour played will cost me approximately five hours of aches and muscle pain and back problems and will leave me hicking around the house moaning like Grandpa Simpson.
Be warned: next time there will be video … if my back holds out.

Great to know you are playing again, and to see Michael and a serious Phil!and after all what are a few aches and pains.. think of me at my age and what I have to do ha ha...
A nice lot of equipment looking forward to hearing it being played, I cannot believe you are going to have to read a manual...
Yay! You are all so distinguished looking in your greys and sheens. I had to take a digital SLR class to help me understand the stupid modes and icons of my camera. I cannot wait to hear some excellent music!
Reading a manual? Pah! The ultimate indignity for a man. Bugger the manual! I'm going to keep on tinkering and fiddling until it either works or breaks. That is the male way of things.
Distinguished, Neetzy? Hahahahaa … Ah, me. Now I truly know I am old. The first time a man is called "distinguished" is like the first time a teenage boy gets called "Mister" by one of the local kids: it is the portal through which we pass from one Age to another.
I have no intention of posting any excellent music, but do brace yourself for a cacophonous racket. We are of an age where pleasing an audience is the last thing we want to do; we merely please ourselves.
John and I call it RTFM, or "read the _____ manual." I believe the other phrase is TSFI. "Take some _____ ibuprofen." We have choices.
Neetzy, finally I understand why my photos aren't working out.
Petrea, those solutions are for people with common sense; I'm male so I prefer FWITIB (fiddle with it 'til it breaks).
Is that why you talked me through very clearly step by step to get my blog right ha ha!As you know how good I am at getting things wrong.I even broke your blog by fiddling..
So that's where I get it from …
Cheeky!
Hi guys! Looks like you are up to your old tricks with an extra kick of "old" coming from your back. bahaha I can laugh because I can't vacuum without ibuprophen anymore.
Hee hee, Shan. We are none of us getting any younger so let's enjoy what we can while we can.
Shan, I can't even sleep without it.
Hahahaha. Yes, Dive and Petrea. We're still young enough to at least look like we're not in pain all the time. :D
Hee hee.
