The next order of business was to try to whip myself back into playing shape. It had been about 5 years since I had even picked up an instrument and I had some practicing to do.

(Btw, that's one of the things I hate about living in New York; there's never time to do more than the one thing you came here to do.)

Sue said there was a practice scheduled for Wednesday and I had to be ready.



For the next couple of days I played as much as I could. I played along to all the songs to my favorite album of all time, Back in Black by AC/DC. I played along with some Ramones, Van Halen, and the Village People. I figured out scales. And I wore my fingers out doing it.

In the end, I still sucked. I tried to learn all the Creamy songs she gave me on tape, but I wasn't doing very well.

And my first rehearsal was the next day.
