Back From Vacation. Hey!
Just got back from the family vacation... to Nashville, TN.
Other than being too damn hot and humid, it was a pretty cool trip. Didn't get to catch a show at the Grand Ole Opry, but we did get to tour the Country Music Hall of Fame. Highly recommended, if you have the chance. It's a real good history lesson, with lots of great music (of course) and some very cool artifacts.
The most unexpected artifact on display, the white, marijuana-leaf motif suit that Gram Parsons wore on the cover of the first Flying Burrito Brothers album. He was a skinny little dude, despite that round, cherubic face.
And nope, I didn't get a chance to play any open mics or sell my songs. Bummer.
Good time, though. And, it's very pretty country.
