November 26, 1994: Mike and I argued about his drumming for half an hour of the rehearsal I'd paid for


Thirty years ago today

            On Saturday I had my daughter briefly with me and then Nancy met me at the Main subway station to pick her up. I then headed up to the rehearsal space and was there on time but no one else was. Tom Smarda was nine minutes late, Mike Martin arrived about nine minutes after him and Beverly, the bass player for The Jazz Bitches got there around nine minutes after that. Steve was very late and we had gone through a whole set before he showed up. It turned out that he’d given his car away earlier that day. We’d had a pretty good rehearsal overall by the time it ended but it was a struggle with Mike and we spent about half an hour of the time I’d paid for arguing. We even argued while having coffee later but I had a good talk with Steve.
