We tried two new tunes in Friday’s jam session. They sounded surprisingly good given that this was the first time playing them together. I got complements the drum track for Last Time, I think it was because of the tambourine. We have a live jam coming up in a couple weeks we’re all looking forward to. Need to practice more than I have been.

We saw 80º (26.6º C) in NYC on Saturday. Pretty much everybody was outside, seemingly in or on there way to a city park. The Great Meadow in Prospect Park was absolutely rammed. There were so many people that the din of their collective conversations was noticeable to passers by.
