Sorry, my dog decided to get into the conversation. Anyway, I decided that learning to play the guitar wasn&#8217;t enough&#8230;. and I just bought a drum set!  It&#8217;s a red Pulse at the heart of it &#8211; toms, bass, and snare. I did have to buy some new hardware &#8211;  high hat stand, cymbal stand, and as it turns out I had to replace the bass pedal. I had intended to do this cheaper, but I didn&#8217;t consider how much the hardware would be before I bought the drums on Craigslist for 90 smacks. Spent about 250 in all.<\/p>\n<p>Though I bought the thing a couple of days ago, I have yet to put the thing together. I might have some time this afternoon before my gig tonight.  I hope this experiment goes well.<\/p>\n<p>PS. The song I will be performing is Tim Finn&#8217;s &#8220;Persuasion&#8221;, and the guitar it will be played on is a Taylor 614CE. What a fine guitar that is.<\/p>\n<p>PPS. If you&#8217;ve noticed I haven&#8217;t typed too much about politics lately, it&#8217;s because I have resigned from the political scene. For some musicians, the music and politics go hand-in-hand. For me one distracts from the other, so, in the probably vain attempt to improve my musical skills politics must take a seat at the back of the bus.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div style=\"padding-bottom:20px; padding-top:10px;\" class=\"hupso-share-buttons\"><!-- Hupso Share Buttons - https:\/\/www.hupso.com\/share\/ --><a class=\"hupso_toolbar\" href=\"https:\/\/www.hupso.com\/share\/\"><img src=\"https:\/\/static.hupso.com\/share\/buttons\/share-medium.png\" style=\"border:0px; padding-top: 5px; float:left;\" alt=\"Share Button\"\/><\/a><script type=\"text\/javascript\">var hupso_services_t=new Array(\"Twitter\",\"Facebook\",\"Google Plus\",\"Pinterest\",\"Linkedin\",\"StumbleUpon\",\"Digg\",\"Reddit\",\"Bebo\",\"Delicious\");var hupso_background_t=\"#EAF4FF\";var hupso_border_t=\"#66CCFF\";var hupso_toolbar_size_t=\"medium\";var hupso_image_folder_url = \"\";var hupso_url_t=\"\";var hupso_title_t=\"Ooops%2C%20I%20Did%20It%20Again....%20%20Again.\";<\/script><script type=\"text\/javascript\" src=\"https:\/\/static.hupso.com\/share\/js\/share_toolbar.js\"><\/script><!-- Hupso Share Buttons --><\/div><p>You know how last summer I decided to finally become a guitard?
