What To Post???

Well, it's been a week or so since I created this blog and I still haven't posted anything on it yet. I'm not quite sure what about my pathetic little life would be interesting enough to put out there for the two of you that have actually discovered and look at my blog.....

Well, right now while I'm writing this, I'm surfing on Ebay and listening to "The Lost Christmas Eve" by the Trans-Siberian Orchestra. The TSO is a very interesting orchestra. They produce sort-of classical-style music with huge arrangements of guitars (usually electric) instead of or along with the traditional strings, etc. Very unique. They specialize in Christmas music, and each cd has a ficticious Christmas story written to go along with it. The music parallels the story, and I'm told that, in concert, they have a narrator that reads the appropriate parts of the story at the right times. The songs all stand on their own, though. They do both traditional Christmas songs and original arrangements and compositions. Check out their website at www.trans-siberian.com.

On another note, I spent most of Sunday afternoon putting together a guitar I have been collecting parts for for some time. I originally bought the body and neck years ago for a decoration because I thought it looked cool. Then, a year or so ago, I decided to make a playable guitar out of it, so I started collecting the parts I didn't have already. Finally, I decided to go ahead and put it together because my sister Debi may take it back to NC with her when she comes up for Christmas. Maybe for my next post, I'll post some pictures of the different steps in the process and some of the specs of the guitar. Any interest? Probably not. But, It's MY blog, so sue me! :-)

Well, that's probably plenty of a post for now. Later!
