TheSavageYoungXyzzy The more I rehearse, the more respect I have for our boys.

I just got home from a five-hour constant rehearsal session to get my band in order for next week. My fingers are all blistered, I have to go buy some new strings for my bass, my voice is shot, I'm chugging soda by the gallon to stay awake, my eyes fuzz in and out of focus...

Fucking hell. These guys are doing this when they're in their late fifties/early sixties. Granted, they've probably gotten a bit used to the marathon sessions by now, but the sheer fact that they keep up that energy live for two-and-a-half hours is absolutely crazy.

Support your Stones!

Oh, crap, I can't move my damn head. I think I'm going to go to bed.

J.J.Flash Fuckin' great Xyzzy. Belive fella, I'm happy for you. I still have the dream to be a musician, at least, play my guitar with a band in some bars or even just rehearsing fuckin' loud at home...... In fact, is very hard to a very young guy like me, have to admit sometimes, how wrong the things are going.....how far the reality are going from the dreams......I can't give up, I ain't gonna give up!! Keep Rockin' Savage, savour each moment of your life playing and just rehearsing.....
Hey, have a good sleep!
Later!
Cheers!
