I'm actually really excited about the stuff the band is doing this year, now that I'm finally paying attention.
We have a LOT more stage time this year than we did last year, and it looks like we're going to have a lot more say in when we go on & for how long. We're working on some fun songs. And even though A. (like most bass players) is probably a much better bass player than I am, I'm still way ahead in terms of knowing the songs, working well with the band, and controlling the cheat sheets. So I'm not feeling massively threatened right this second.
I also finally have a draft set list to swear at. (It turns out our fearless leader not only can't read, he can't count either.) So I'm as happy as a pig in @$#%^$!, as they say. I swear, I should just get a job as an editor somewhere and be done with it...
(In other other news, I actually seem to be awake and paying attention to life at the moment. We'll see how long this lasts.)
