Things That I Used To Do

Stevie Ray Vaughan and The Fabulous Thunderbirds with Things That I Used To Do, live on the River Boat Queen, 1988.

Raining today at the cozy cottage on the coast. Only thing this place doesn't have is a fireplace or a wood stove to keep the damp outta the air. Fireplace, wood stove, pellet stove - they are on the list of things I must have no matter where I end up living.

Tis early in the storm and it is not a hard rain but is too much to be considered a drizzle. Is soft like a drizzle tho. Before it started raining, I had two big fat jays along with some little chickadees - birds I had at the feeder at the little cottage by the creek in the redwoods - at the bird feeder I hung outside the kitchen window today. Have 4 jay feathers I found my first full day here on the table. Feels right cozy - other than that no fireplace thang :)

Texas Flood

Stevie Ray Vaughan and Double Trouble at Rockpalast (Germany) with Texas Flood.

SRV was dang near plucking out his guitar strings in this concert. I wonder if it was his first tour after being boo'd at Montreux? Looks like he rearranged his guitar strap from Texas Flood and dove into one of my favorite SRV songs - Things That I Used To Do - not sure why the camera does that long cut away to the eye candy of the area around the concert - better eye candy on the stage.
