Welcome to 2012!
Let's catch up with the last two weeks.
Recovered all the music I could - yet lost about 1,800 songs. Most were live concerts I had traded with other Dead Heads and the like. I can get some back, but not all.
Bought a new external hard drive and iTunes now resides there and is working just fine.
Burned 10 DVDs as a tertiary backup to my music.
Had a great Christmas Eve with Nancy...enjoying some fish (not 7 different fishes though). We had baked clams, and mussels fra diavolo and scallops...and Nancy had a Lobster tail (I am allergic)
Christmas Day was cool...after the boys left to go be with their dad, we lounged in the bed watching movies all day.
New Years Eve we almost went out to see some friends play music, but at the last second decided to stay in and make dinner and have cocktails and champagne.
I flew to SoCal yesterday on business and will be here until Saturday. MUCH warmer here than at hoe, so that is a good thing.
Getting geared up for the International Blues Challenge in 3 weeks. Bought the new mixer with USB capabilities and it is working nicely.
So much to do before they happen...think I will get it all together.
Next three shows on Music On The Couch are past IBC winners...come join us!

From Travis: This time around, I've suggested three possible avenues to take in building your Set. Ready?- This one is "easy". Just come up with whatever strikes your fancy.
- Define 2011 with a progression that reflects how your year went.
- Set the stage for what you expect in 2012.
1. Grab the banner, make your post title Five on Friday, and be sure to link back here.
2. Go to Playlist.com to make your Set of five songs. You may choose a particular theme to share with us, or post random tunes if that's your vibe for the day. You can simply post the Set, or you can add a little summary about what you are sharing.
2a. Don't feel restricted by the tracks listed on Playlist.com. And don't be discouraged if the Embed code won't work. You're welcome to use any type of media to share your Sets.
3. Be sure to sign Mr Linky so everyone can visit your Set.
4. No tags, but feel free to invite your friends to play along if they need a post topic on a Friday.
Hummm...I have been thinking about this for a couple of weeks and could not decide which of the three Progressions I was going to use. The today I decided to go with the third choice - Set the stage for what you expect in 2012
So, here goes...
HAVE A GRAND WEEKEND
ENJOY....
- In February, I am broadcasting from Beale Street for the International Blues Challenge. 5 days, 9 shows, 26 hours live and all become podcasts...I will be "Walking In Memphis"
- I go to work every day and feel under-appreciated by my firm. I am on-site at a client's location and the client loves me. My company, not so much...key line from the song; "And if your train’s on time, You can get to work by nine, And start your slaving job to get your pay" - Yup I am "Taking Care Of Business"
- Planning on taking Nancy to New York this summer. We had hoped to do it last year, but it did not work. So, this summer...I am real hopeful. So of course, "New York, New York"
- Music On The Couch is becoming more and more my passion. Each Monday, I have two guests and hopefully, my questions give them "Something To Talk About"
- And finally, the year would not be complete with Nancy in my life - "My Girl"
