For years, I’ve had a title for my first music album–Bagpipes, Banjos and Harmonicas. \u00a0Of course, the music on said album would utilize all three instruments in a rock and\/or country genre. \u00a0There is only one limiting factor–I have never tried to play the pipes or strum a banjo and I only know how to play one song on the harmonica. \u00a0And that came about from me buying a harmonica in a Cracker Barrel back in about 1999. \u00a0And that harmonica had a little folded sheet music in the box which taught one how\u00a0to play “When the saints go marching in.” \u00a0So, there you go.<\/p>\n
Many months and several days ago, Tammy, the Dukester (pronounced Duke-Ster for us poor folk) and I went to Boston to watch the Red Sox beat the Yankees. \u00a0I hope none of you were trying to say it “Duke-Eh-Stair”.<\/p>\n
While there, we went to the Black Rose. \u00a0However, when we got there, it was two minutes past the time for anyone under age to be admitted. \u00a0The bouncer said “No go!” \u00a0I looked in the door and said, “There are kids younger than Duke in there.” \u00a0WELL, they were already present dining. \u00a0I then said, “Give me a menu, the lad is hungry and we were waiting out-front to be seated.” \u00a0Although, we had just been to Legal SeaFood and Duke had just plowed through the most expensive lobster that I have ever purchased.<\/p>\n
Some bantiful words, a well placed tip for door people, kitchen & wait staff and all others that need a good weekend combined with an order from the menu of chocolate chip cookies and milk for the boy and Duke was front row with the Dragon Lady and I watching a Bagpipe, Piano and Harmonica group. \u00a0It was wicked awesome! \u00a0I’d do it again and I i’d do it for you if you were with us.<\/p>\n
I feel the time is coming to see if I can still wear my kilt. \u00a0Properly.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Top rock song with bagpipes–AC\/DC (of course) “It’s a long way to the top”<\/p>\n
Top country song with bagpipes–Steve Earle \u00a0“Copperhead Road” \u00a0 \u00a0 One of the best songs ever.<\/p>\n
My favorite song with bagpipes & according to iTunes, my most played song–Dropkick Murphy’s \u00a0“Amazing Grace”.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
It is dirt dog dry here in paradise. \u00a0Cattle market is not getting higher. \u00a0I don’t have any bitcoin stock. \u00a0The fires have been close but not threatening to Kela’s domain in LaLa land. \u00a0 Only a matter of days until she comes HOME to visit. \u00a0Duke’s cows eat a lot of hay. \u00a0Tammy’s mini herfs–not so much. \u00a0Wheat pasture isn’t going to hold out much longer for the goats. \u00a0Waiting to see how the sesame grades. \u00a0Hoping the AI program worked–If ONE sticks it is a success.<\/p>\n
And I still don’t like doe goats.<\/p>\n
Cheers to you and here’s to hoping that there is nothing but shamrocks and horseshoes for all of you bored enough to read this. \u00a0 Do me a favor and spark up some “Amazing Grace”. \u00a0 Your choice as to which one. \u00a0Think about it as it plays and I will double dog dare you to be in a bad mood. \u00a0 They don’t play it at funerals for the deceased. \u00a0It’s for the living.<\/p>\n
“Get busy living or get busy dying.”<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Have a good one and a better tomorrow.<\/p>\n
