Here we go!

Well….. Steve and I are playing at an open mic night next Monday evening. It’s a place called “Seekers” coffeehouse. To say that I am nervous is a complete understatement. Terrified is more like it. 10 years have gone by. 10 years and no rain. I was a different person then. I had absolutely no idea who I was and I let other people tell me what to think and how to feel. That girl is gone. That is good and maybe a little bad. I dig my heels in a little with everything and I’m not afraid of anyone anymore. So,that means that my big mouth can get me into trouble….a lot. Anyway, we are playing 3 songs. 3 songs or 15 minutes…. we picked 3 songs that will be good. I think we may play the one that I just finished. That makes it even more nervousing (again… I know that is not a word but it should be) I want to post the song but I have lost my voice due to allergies and can’t sing it. So I will try to post it when I can. What the crap are we doing! Could we really do this music thing again? I know that it will be totally different this time, not so much baggage, but it really is scary to me. Scary and exhilarating at the same time. It’s just 3 songs for now. If they like us they could ask us back to do a whole set. What would that be like? Steve has the tune to a new song and it is really, really good. Slowly but surely it is happening. We are moving into our dream. We have had so many set backs and disappointments, that it gets hard to hope but darn it, here’s hoping. I don’t remember how to sing in front of people. Oh well, as long as I don’t fall off  the stage it will be okay. Oh great! Watch me fall of the freakin’ stage….. crap. The songs are coming. The dream is on my heals. Life is happening and hope prevails.
