THIS blog WILL COMMENT ON LIVE ROCK PERFORMANCE. THE FIRST HUNDRED POSTS ; MY HONEST OPINION AS LIVE ROCK CRITIC.
I have written lately of my own Live Rock journey and how it did end up wrecked on the rocks again and again.
Still it is an incredible improvement to have recovered from virtual paralysis a number of times and be able to write and compose and play instruments and most of all to have been able to dance on stage and perfrorm on Harmonica with LIVE ROCK BANDS.
I do not know if you read your e-mail, did you read? I have had my damned virtual paralysis or Tonic Immobility, my body's reaction to overwhelming unchallengeable misuse of authority.My recovery piece as I try to re-institute my usual daily music practice is Full Blown Schizophrenic, ( on Youtube and my blogs too I think, in live performance and 2 different animations. )I managed a perfect performance starting on the 1971 Les Paul Black Beauty "Leslie" with the gold jewelery, solo, then I added sequenced Twin Kurzweil (4 amp true quadrophonic) drums and finally the whole symphonic. I sing through a Rivera Research Stereo Combo Amplifier meant for guitar using 1970's microphones. Real Roots Rocking but with old Rolls Royce Gear. I did a perfect performance of Full Blown Schizophrenic. I sang the first verses with guitar and then did the most extensive solo I ever did with that song using the 1970's Big Muff. Electric Mistress, Boss Super Phaser, Dan Electro, Mutone Mu Harmonics and my pair of 1970's Marshal Stacks. Dave, that is Real Roots Rocking. I will record this solo again on my also real low down newish $400. Sony MV 1 and put it on Youtube. Criticize my " I ", but I am the only one here for many a year. Did you know THAT BASED ON PHONE CALLS ABOUT ME FROM FULL BLOWN SCHIZOPHRENICS the Sooke RCMP wrote to all the local Police departments and to the Homeland Security in the US to try to `find some way to apprehend me`. Full Blown Schizophrenic Mental Disease spreads even by telephone, more weirdly contagious that any Virus.I am fortunate with my Total Recall, it facilitates my being able to perform after I was not able to practice hardly at all for five years, due to Collapse Immobility.
