2010 has started ok, rehearsals kick off with the Cambridge Guitar Orchestra this afternoon, and yesterday I re-learned the 2nd movement to Vivaldi's Concerto in D (RV93 for all you Vivaldi fans) with a load of ornamentation thrown in for the first time. It's a staple in the Classical Guitar repertoire but I'd not played it for a while because of all the Grade exams I was doing, so my performance set list is now five minutes longer.

On my first day of 2010, I huddled up around the nonexistent warmth of a broken boiler as temperatures dipped very low. When I got really cold, I went outside nekkid to warm up. :roll: I have my fingers crossed that the year gets better. Either that, or I've got a very strange case of frostbite....


Otoh, I do have a few lil projects cooking up so, as soon as I'm fully thawed, I'll get on to annoying you all with full and glorious details! :wink:

And I topped the amazing achievement of last year (cooking the Christmas dinner for a full house, completely solo, and not ruining it) by repeating that feat this year (with some improvements in taste, no less!) and remembering to send cards to people in time for them to possibly arrive before April*. Woo hoo.


*I even received reports that at least three of them arrived before the 25th. I think I may have peaked. :shock:]]> News Scrybe https://guitarnoise.forum/news/happy-2010/#post-345526 https://guitarnoise.forum/news/happy-2010/#post-345503 Sat, 02 Jan 2010 19:01:30 +0000
on the first new day I sat around a fireplace with a few friends and we jammed on our ukuleles.

one guy had had a hand accident. he cannot use three fingers on the fretting hand (middle, ring and pinky).
he was frustrated that he could not play his regular six string acoustic because those maimed fingers would brush against the strings. he can't control them yet.
I gave him the baritone uke and it worked perfect for him. his lame fingers don't get in the way.
it was a joy to see him take to the uke; I gave it to him to keep.

hope my karma is set for the year. :lol:]]> News dogbite https://guitarnoise.forum/news/happy-2010/#post-345503 https://guitarnoise.forum/news/happy-2010/#post-345474 Fri, 01 Jan 2010 23:56:19 +0000
Co-incidentally, I'm in the process of ... umm... acquiring this year's Hootenanny. It should be ready for watching in about an hour or so.]]> News kent_eh https://guitarnoise.forum/news/happy-2010/#post-345474 https://guitarnoise.forum/news/happy-2010/#post-345471 Fri, 01 Jan 2010 21:07:02 +0000 News Darth Ordinary https://guitarnoise.forum/news/happy-2010/#post-345471 https://guitarnoise.forum/news/happy-2010/#post-345455 Fri, 01 Jan 2010 09:29:56 +0000
Green Day was awesome as always, and that Selena Gomez is a real wizard, up & comer. What about that Bieber kid? From 'round here, started on Youtube and got discovered before he was 15. :roll:]]> News Blue Jay https://guitarnoise.forum/news/happy-2010/#post-345455 https://guitarnoise.forum/news/happy-2010/#post-345453 Fri, 01 Jan 2010 06:08:38 +0000 News tinsmith https://guitarnoise.forum/news/happy-2010/#post-345453
