Hi Everyone
Tonight was interesting...
I was supposed to play my first ever open mic set in a beer garden at a local hotel tonight...
I have been preparing and planning for it these last 2 weeks.
Well ,today in the UK we have a heat wave , if I had attended the open mic I would have had to walk 45 minutes to the hotel and by the time I got there I would have been soaked in sweat...
I also couldnt find anyone who wanted to brave the heat and come with me to the gig so I had to postpone playing my first ever live open mic set.
Instead I settled for drinking a bottle of wine , ordering pizza and trying to learn a song I heard on the radio today.
This song is one I have wanted to try playing for a while, its one of those ones that conjures up alot of nostalgic memories for me.
It was realeased back in 2008 and while learning it my mind was flooded with memories from that time...its funny how music works like that , certian songs transport you right back to the first time you heard them , that is certianly the case with this one.
The song is "She moves in her own way" by the UK band The Kooks.
So Hive Music family , I STILL havent played a live open mic set and my next opertunity is this Sunday afternoon at a local bowling club.
If it works out I will have footage and stories to share with you guys , until then enjoy me trying to play a song I only learned a few hours ago :)
"She moves in her own way"
The Kooks
So at my show on Monday
I was hoping someday
You'd be on your way to better things
It's not about your make-up
Or how you try to shape up
To these tiresome paper dreams
Paper dreams, honey
So now you pour your heart out
You're telling me you're far out
Not about to lie down for your cause
But you don't pull my strings
'Cause I'm a better man
Moving on to better things
But uh oh, I love her because
She moves in her own way
But uh oh, she came to my show
Just to hear about my day
And at the show on Tuesday
She was in her mindset
Tempered furs and spangled boots
Looks are deceiving, making me believe it
And these tiresome paper dreams
Paper dreams, honey, yeah
So won't you go far
Tell me you're a keeper
Not about to lie down for your cause
And you don't pull my strings
'Cause I'm a better man
Moving on to better things
But uh oh, I love her because
She moves in her own way
But uh oh, she came to my show
Just to hear about my day
But uh oh, I love her because
She moves in her own way
But uh oh, oh, she came to my show
Just to hear about my day
