Band rehearsal today. Getting great tones out of this line 6 vetta amp. Slowly but surely. Infinito says he doesn’t want to redo all his drum tracks. Band agreed. Were moving on. Bas says we should charge admission to our rehearsals because they are so much better there than at our shows lately. Thanks. We have to get it more consistent.

Felt relief for the first time in weeks tonight. Can’t say why yet. Driving down 195 a 110 mph with the top open, smoking a cigar and listening to Lou Reed, Sing Street Hassle. Looking at the beautiful sights of Miami Beach and the skyline of Miami. O.K. so maybe Miami is the poorest city in America. It's still one of the prettiest.

Current Spin: Lou Reed, Street Hassle. The best song ever written? Maybe. That and the entire Born to Run Album.
