I've had a great weekend. I shared a party with a friend's birthday for my going away event. We had hibachi and sushi for dinner, and Karaoke for hours on end. It was a blast and I sang great.



I'm a really bad singer, I mean. . . I am a musician, I do love to sing, I just can't. My throat and lungs do not work well together. BUT. Friday night, I can say I had 2 of the best performances of the night. "Let's Dance" -Bowie, and "Rock n Roll" -Zeppelin. I kicked Robert Plant's ass and David Bowie couldn't sound as good unless he'd actually been there. Anyone paying attention agreed, I was doing great. And that's an awesome feeling. One I've experienced only one other time when I fronted a band for a few songs. I get it all the time on guitar. Most of the folks I hang with aren't used to someone REALLY knowing their way around the neck. But I usually avoid vocals and don't generate much praise when I do sing.



So anyway, I know it's only Karaoke, but who cares? It is always fun even when it's bad, and it's even more fun when you sing in tune.
Know your song, and don't hold back. Sing as loud as you need to and control where you hold the mic. I'm sure REAL vocalists would agree. Though they may or may not agree that I was stellar Friday night. I was, after all... REALLY drunk!







Adding to the awesomeness of the weekend - a couple friends that we NEVER get to hang out with were there. (I'm really good at the guilt trip! Thanks, Mom.) I had a ton of great food this weekend and further developed my taste for sushi, (I'm now a fan) picked up a couple checks for some light computer work, and while shopping at Fry's (love that store) the girl ringing me up was falling over herself in love with me. She wasn't hiding it well. -If at all.

Sunday I spent pretty much the whole day getting to know iTunes. I'm a WinAmp user from way back and though I've used iTunes from time to time, I like the freedom and sensibility of WinAmp. Then after reading Will Wheaton's iTunes article I decided to delve deeper. I'm digging it mostly for the album flow alone. If only there was an XML media library. . .

But I'm really liking the AlbumFlow. note that if you have a big music library it WILL take you a long time to update your tags and get iTunes to grab the appropriate album artwork. here's a sample or 2.
