Ok, finally had our first band practice. The first 2 guitarist dropped out so we had to find some new guys. Craigslist is wonderful! The new guys were great - both our age and into the same cool music. Since we never played together before it was just seeing how things would gel . It was great after 25 years! My throat is sore and my voice is gone. I don't have my falsetto back - yet!

The new guitar player NAILED the leads for Hotel California and Another Brick in the Wall. My voice was gone when we did Stairway to Heaven and I was trying to sing in a lower register but it was awful, so I got angry and kicked it up and nailed it! A great night! 50 is the new 20!!
