Playin with the band

We (my friend the drummer, and I the singer) have been trying to put the right band together since July, we have played with a myriad of local musicians, all very talented, but the right blend just wasn't coming together...until yesterday. Something really good just clicked with the group that showed up, and I am super excited. It sounded better after one afternoon of newly playing together than any of the local stuff I have heard so far and it sure would be great to
play some of the local pubs and a casual now and then.

**Thanks anonymous for the question! The type of music is a nice combination of some bluesey old country, a little rock from many eras and a few originals from different band members - its good listening and dancing music :O) Our set list from Sunday (that I can recall) was as follows:
Crazy - Patsy Cline/Willie Nelson
Night Life - Willie Nelson
Georgia - Willie Nelson
Picture - Kid Rock & Sheryl Crow
All My Ex's - George Straight
Hotel California - Eagles
Shame On Me - Original - Mike Foster
Give Me One Reason - Tracy Chapman

As each little thing begins to come to fruition, I
feel a little more confident that I have made the
right choices. I try to focus on the positive, but
not all of it has been super easy. Some days it really
is two steps forward, one step back, and I have a had
a few days that it felt more like I slid all the way
to the beginning. Yesterday was one of those days
that I truly felt like I am where I am supposed to be
and that life is treating me well and it was super
nice to feel that way for a moment.
