I have written a couple of new songs in the last few days and have recordings up of them already. These are two to three hour recordings, nothing special, but OK.
I plugged the Applause acoustic (with the Seymour Duncan Woody pickup) into my new pedal board (see below) and into the Kustom amp. I ran direct XLR out of the amp into the Art TubeMP and out to the PC line in.
Anyway, the pedal board updates are below. I got the cables, routed it all up and got everything powered.
i woke up this morning to
screaming cats, thinking about
the washing machine.
apparently, it dripped some water
at some point.
i don’t know, i didn’t see it.
i washed some towels to see
while drinking the morning’s
coffee, and everything is fine.
now it’s afternoon and i still
look like bed in a morning.
the cats are silent now, but
i’m still annoyed.
now i listen, this american
life, a repeat about valentines
day.
someone dryly speaking about
love lost and long gone.
i am squinting at poems
by bukowski. i hear the
same dry voice, his words,
conflicting with the radio.
i am leaking out the meaning of
each voice’s commentary, but
the floor is dry under the
washing machine.
so this is the end of the work day
i’m home and i’m feeling at ease
the honey brown’s half gone already
it will be time for another one soon
outside, it’s chilly, but in here it’s freezing
the electric bill is going to kill me
to the next honey brown, i say ‘bring it on’
i need some help resting easy
so this is the end of the work week
i told you i need the structure
what i meant was i can’t be trusted
to stick to it when left on my own
but then how would i buy more honey brown
and keep the heat up to a hundred?
