This is my 81st post to the blog I started with "Why Have I Started This Blog?" back on June 28th. If you’ve been following along with me, you know that I’ve tried to cover a multitude of approaches to keep it informative, educational and fun for the new guitarist who is looking for ideas on gear, music or just ideas on how to get started in the music business as I’m doing myself, the second time around.
I’ve shown everyone my pedal board and explained in detail, what effects pedals were mounted to the pedal board and in what order. My guitar collection has been the point of interest for at least 2 or 3 of my post’s not including my Music Studio’s; my first one that was located in our apartment in Baltimore City and the current one located in our home in Severna Park, Maryland.
Not only have I shared with you all of the gear in my set-up including my collection of guitars, but I’ve also covered the many modifications that I’ve made to all of my Fender Stratocasters. All along, I’ve kept myself open to any and all new ideas, suggestions, etc. from fellow guitarists. I follow many other blogs relating to guitars, guitarists, Blues Guitarists, Blues-Rock and so on. Just read down the left side of my blog and you’ll see the many different blog sites that I follow. I also try to keep up on Twitter, Facebook, ReverbNation, BandMix.com, YouTube and all the other Social Media Sites to stay on the pulse of what’s happening amongst the many other musician friends I’ve developed since I started along my journey back into the music business.
Unfortunately, in the next few days, I’ll be admitted into Shady Grove Adventist Hospital to undergo a long-needed surgery on my right leg and hip that will ultimately allow me to walk, and stand for extended periods of time without being in tremendous amounts of pain and pouring down with sweat. I should be in recovery / rehab for approximately 90 days after being discharged during which time I plan to practice the guitar as much as possible to improve my playing and advance myself as much as possible so that when I am ready to hit the stage with the band, I’ll be more than ready to jam with them no matter what song type is chosen. However, I may not be able to keep up with regular posts to my blog so please excuse me; I’ll get back to you as soon and as much as I possibly can.
The Christmas Holidays are quickly approaching us too, so we all need to keep our hearts and our minds on our family and friends and all of those in need. If you remember to start and end each day with a short prayer for all of those in need, you’ll be surprised what miracles can occur.
As always, please remember to hug your children and tell them that you love them. Even if they don’t tell you, it means the world to them.
Until next time, keep jammin!
