Rewrite, rewrite, rewrite... day 1.   Message List  
Reply | Forward Message #288 of 291 |
Hey all, 

     So yesterday was a lot of fun even with some rewriting mixed into the day.   I started to look at a song I'd done mid-february.   Most of the lyrics are nonsense but there were a couple lines in I really liked and I found the melody and chords interesting.   So after a day of hanging out with a lady-type person and generally futzing around I sat down at a bar for a burger and a beer and starting playing with the lyrics.   I found it kind of hard going at first as some old habits of focusing on all the stuff that's wrong with it... and more over what I want the song to become took over.   Then I made the conscious choice to start with just the stuff i liked and start asking where I might go from there.   Well, I finished my beer and went next door to listen to some friends play and enjoy more beer and drips and drabs of lines and inspiration came along as I sat there.   So... that's my story from yesterday.   What's your story?

Hey all, I seem to like to overwhelm myself. I started working on rewriting a little ditty last week and made some progress but haven't gotten much further....
