goodbye/telluride

whew.. sunday evening, and i'm pretty beat. the revolution played a party out in astoria saturday evening, and we had a little too much fun, and we still had to race home and work on some songs. stupid fun, always getting in the way of songwriting.

goodbye/telluride is getting closer to these loose ideas of musicals and such.. i knew i wanted a field holler-type song, and this one is similar to one the volumes used to do live.. i always thought that was the best part of the night. the second bit is trying to figure out some jazz stuff. much harder than i figured. apparently it takes more than twenty minutes to figure out how to "walk" on the bass.. and the piano, and guitar, and drums. pain in the ass.

on the other hand, emily and i tried to do all sorts of rhythmic clapping stuff, i really had a blast with that.. reminded me of some south african impromptu music.

but it has spirit! and i learned an awful lot..
