Inside the Red Head's Head<p><strong>Practice: Complete</strong></p><p>Just got home from band practice. Lucy did not pull the football away from Charlie Brown.</p><p>My finger tips ARE KILLING ME. The last two songs we did I could barely play. My fingers just said, “yeah we’re done for the day” and that was it. Outside of that, things went pretty well. There probably won’t be a practice next week as our drummer is traveling, but after that I hope we can get onto something like a regular schedule. </p><p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/robj_1971/54477861465/in/datetaken/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://www.flickr.com/photos/robj_1971/54477861465/in/datetaken/</a></p><p><a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://robertjames1971.blog/tag/band-practice/" target="_blank">#BandPractice</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://robertjames1971.blog/tag/band-rehearsal/" target="_blank">#bandRehearsal</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://robertjames1971.blog/tag/cover-band/" target="_blank">#CoverBand</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://robertjames1971.blog/tag/dad-rock-cover-band/" target="_blank">#dadRockCoverBand</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://robertjames1971.blog/tag/guitar/" target="_blank">#Guitar</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://robertjames1971.blog/tag/iphoneography/" target="_blank">#iphoneography</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://robertjames1971.blog/tag/lizardfish/" target="_blank">#lizardfish</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://robertjames1971.blog/tag/photography/" target="_blank">#photography</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://robertjames1971.blog/tag/rock-cover-band/" target="_blank">#rockCoverBand</a></p>
Inside the Red Head's Head<p><strong>Two Weeks in a&nbsp;Row?</strong></p><p>I didn’t get my hopes up last week and everything worked out. Now we’re shooting for two weeks in a row. Should I be excited?</p><p>Last week we had our first band practice in months after more false alarms than I care to remember. After all the fails I refused to get excited about it until we were all actually in the room together. Once we were though… rock and roll bro.</p><p>Now we’re talking about practicing again tomorrow. One week later. Is it going to happen? Is it going to fall through? Are we on or are we dealing with another false alarm? I don’t want to get too excited. I don’t want to get my hopes too high… but we’re practicing at noon tomorrow and my stuff is already packed up.</p><p>Rock and roll, bro.</p><p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/robj_1971/54372980192/in/datetaken/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://www.flickr.com/photos/robj_1971/54372980192/in/datetaken/</a></p><p><a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://robertjames1971.blog/tag/band-practice/" target="_blank">#BandPractice</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://robertjames1971.blog/tag/band-rehearsal/" target="_blank">#bandRehearsal</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://robertjames1971.blog/tag/cover-band/" target="_blank">#CoverBand</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://robertjames1971.blog/tag/dad-rock/" target="_blank">#dadRock</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://robertjames1971.blog/tag/dad-rock-cover-band/" target="_blank">#dadRockCoverBand</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://robertjames1971.blog/tag/guitar/" target="_blank">#Guitar</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://robertjames1971.blog/tag/iphoneography/" target="_blank">#iphoneography</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://robertjames1971.blog/tag/lizardfish/" target="_blank">#lizardfish</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://robertjames1971.blog/tag/music/" target="_blank">#Music</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://robertjames1971.blog/tag/photography/" target="_blank">#photography</a></p>
Inside the Red Head's Head<p><strong>Still Looks Good</strong></p><p>It still looks like Sunday will have a band practice. The first one in ages. </p><p>I need to put new strings on my Les Paul Standard. I also need to not get too excited because statistically speaking it’s probably safe to assume something will take the plans and cock them up. </p><p>Ugh. I want to be in a band again!

Inside the Red Head's Head<p>I’m packed up and ready for tonight’s band practice. One step closer to being ready to audition singers…. Or more like to try to find singers to audition. something like that.</p> <a href="https://flic.kr/p/2pLBGLS" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank"></a> <p><a href="https://robertjames1971.blog/2024/04/21/packed-up-2/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://robertjames1971.blog/2024/04/21/packed-up-2/</a></p><p><a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://robertjames1971.blog/tag/band/" target="_blank">#Band</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://robertjames1971.blog/tag/band-practice/" target="_blank">#BandPractice</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://robertjames1971.blog/tag/band-rehearsal/" target="_blank">#bandRehearsal</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://robertjames1971.blog/tag/cover-band/" target="_blank">#CoverBand</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://robertjames1971.blog/tag/guitar/" target="_blank">#Guitar</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://robertjames1971.blog/tag/iphoneography/" target="_blank">#iphoneography</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://robertjames1971.blog/tag/lizardfish/" target="_blank">#lizardfish</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://robertjames1971.blog/tag/photography/" target="_blank">#photography</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://robertjames1971.blog/tag/rock-band/" target="_blank">#rockBand</a></p>

Inside the Red Head's Head<p>The plan was to start The Great New Singer Process today with a band practice with just the three of us so we could start rehearsing some of the songs we’re going to ask auditioning singers to try out with. </p><p>Nope. We have a one week delay. Mike the Bass Player has something going on at home that he needs to take care of, so we will meet at his house seven days from now and kick off the journey then.</p><p>This is bad news because we were all looking forward to it, but for me personally it is also good news because holy crap do I need to practice.</p><p>Seven days from now. My calendar is marked. Bring it on.</p><p><a href="https://robertjames1971.blog/2024/04/07/wait-until-next-week/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://robertjames1971.blog/2024/04/07/wait-until-next-week/</a></p><p><a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://robertjames1971.blog/tag/band/" target="_blank">#Band</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://robertjames1971.blog/tag/band-practice/" target="_blank">#BandPractice</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://robertjames1971.blog/tag/band-rehearsal/" target="_blank">#bandRehearsal</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://robertjames1971.blog/tag/lizardfish/" target="_blank">#lizardfish</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://robertjames1971.blog/tag/music/" target="_blank">#Music</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://robertjames1971.blog/tag/new-singer-search/" target="_blank">#newSingerSearch</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://robertjames1971.blog/tag/singer-auditions/" target="_blank">#singerAuditions</a></p>

We are rehearsing Johan de Meij&#39;s &quot;Lord of the Rings&quot; Symphony (20 years before the movie was a gleam in anyone&#39;s eye) for a May concert. I am playing bari sax, playing the bari sax, 2nd bassoon, and 4th trombone parts because no wind band is back to the size it was pre-pandemic.</p>
