i went and played at m st. and wisconsin ave in washington dc. always a good experience! and today was st pattys so it was a little bit more epic for the crowd. except i was playing a saxophone which isnt irish at all. then i left and went to chill with my friend and got high and played drums. apparently i was fitting in with my friend well when he played some bongos, he said i gained crazy rhythm at the drums.
later that night i went back to m st. and wisconsin ave, this time to a much sparser crowd. the atmosphere was much stronger, and i could feel it impacting what i chose to play (fitting in notes with car's sounds, listening to echoes. i noticed crazy reverb paths in the vibrating column of opposing shop's walls). i ended up focusing on looping lines, usually lines of alternating feelings. i had this one that was like a c (g f# d e) g a (g f# d e) a c (g f# d e) g a while alternating feelings on the (ac) and (ag) parts.
