(Thanks to donations in the Tip Jar topping $100 this week, voila, here’s a Saturday chapter! -ctan) — I’m trying to figure out how much to tell you about rehearsal. I mean, I think it’s kind of interesting but I’m pretty sure my descriptions of it probably aren’t. We settled into a routine where me, […]
That night was the night I had the nightmare about Ziggy leaping off a building. He had wings on so he didn’t fall but I still scared myself so much I woke up in a cold sweat. And then realized I had fallen asleep with the air conditioner on so no wonder I was cold. […]
So the call went out among our contacts that I was going to be holding auditions for drummers in New York. But we still hadn’t made any firm decisions about the rest of the instrumentation. Horns? Backing singers? Auxiliary percussion? I wasn’t going to make those decisions without talking to Ziggy and Barrett again, now […]
It didn’t, of course. Make sense, that is. The world still made no sense when I woke up later but at least I had less of a hangover. I managed to get myself showered and make myself presentable before going downstairs to find out who was there. Courtney was playing hostess to a bunch of […]
I didn’t see much. I heard shouting and glass breaking like beer bottles were being thrown. I splashed my face in the sink and wiped it with a towel because I couldn’t think of anything else to do. Two other guys came out of the stalls to stand next to me by the sinks, listening […]
(Saturday bonus post! Thank you everyone who donated to make it happen!) The show was at the Paradise, which was one of the strangest buildings ever made into a rock club. Have I described it before? The place was kind of longer than it was wide, with the stage not at the far end, like […]
(There will be a story post on Saturday! Because the tip jar hit $100! Now we’re back to $1. Thanks everyone who contributed! -ctan) — Maybe I’m a moron but I kept forgetting I was the singer. No, really, we went down to the basement and I tuned a guitar and then when I had […]
(Reminder of the February fanworks challenge! The theme this month is threesomes and moresomes! Details here: https://daron.ceciliatan.com/archives/5146. Oh, and I was supposed to remind you all that SPANISH NIGHTS is now live on Amazon and free for Kindle Unlimited folks to read there: Spanish Nights: An Erotic Novella) — The next morning I was woken […]
(It’d be great if we could get 50 people to take this quick survey about loading times for DGC! Get a timer and go: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/W7NWDPG -ctan) — Bart picked me up at six as planned but with no plan for where we were going to eat. “How about Bertucci’s?” Michelle suggested. She had grown her […]
(Hey folks, help me out: get a stopwatch or a phone that counts seconds and take this quick survey to let me know the loading times for you for DGC: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/W7NWDPG! -ctan) — I’ll give you one guess who the first person was I called about the drumming gig. Martin. It never occurred to me […]
