Boys Night

The girls traveled back to western PA this weekend for my mother-in-law's surprise birthday party. They got to hang out with Still A Dad on Friday night and then spent the rest of the weekend with her family. I couldn't make it due to work complications - see some previous posts where I complain about this! Anyhoooo, when I realized the house would be relatively empty on Saturday night - I shouted out to Moor Cowbell and a guy I met at my new office to come over and jam. We grilled some fish, had some beers and then tried to find some songs that all three of us know. New Guy is 10 years younger than Cowbell and myself so he knows more 90's music - although he is a classic rock guy as well. We played some AC/DC, Van Halen, Floyd, Rush, The Cure, J Geils, Bush, Pearl Jam, U2, Priest.....and too many others to remember. My arms hurt! I went from playing 3 songs every month to playing for 4+ hours. I recorded a song that we actually all knew the beginning, middle and ending to...which was rare! It's "Hey Jealousy" by the Gin Blossoms. The sound isn't that good due to the fact that it's recorded on a digital still camera with a weak mic.....but hey, it worked. It sounds much better if you actually know the song I guess so you can hear it playing in your head as well.
