Destroying Our Past

[Sarg]

Music was my slow steps down off the ledge. I had this old Framus twelve string that I had battered and beatened back and forth across Nam. Migrated to Gulfport, Ms. and used to play plain old honky tonks for beer and a sandwitch. Got far out of the "rage stage" And then booked it to Arizona. Met up with a band of Brothers, did the school thing, marriage thing and career thing and then crashed and burned like a B-52 loaded with napalm.

In youth we could do shit like that. Now we're older, it comes back to crunch on ya'. Hey but I'm picking up the old Gibson and that one step forward, yeah, I know and two steps...

Still got the old Framus. They ought to make it into a statue or something.

I have kept everything I could.. legal or not.

Wow Sarg. You still got the Framus. I've been meaning to get me a 12 string. Been listening to too much Leadbelly not to. Sold my 72 Fender and 78 Gibson RD Artist in a fit of insanity at one point.

That story sounds real familiar Sarg. Build, Destroy, Burn out, Start over. Starting over again here, at least I think the worst part is done. Still trying to get a shrink.

Band practice didn't go well last night. Devolved to chaos at one point. Never thought I'd get that low while playing. Low isn't the right word, but I'm just not finding the right one. Took along time to calm and get to sleep last night. Maybe I'd be better off as a solo act.

Naw, Zip, just a bad night. It's a musician thing, man. Still wanna hear the you play the pipes. Wagon, that poor thing looks like it was used as target practice. But a couple of months ago, put a new set of strings on her to at least make her look good. Now, if I can set aside about a week to tune her...huh.

You know on the PTSD Forum chat you can even have audio and video chat. That's the only way your lik*ely to hear me play. Don't even own a video camera, and Youtube ain't my game.
