No Jam This Week

This band is a musician thing, meaning all of us doing what we love to do.........make music. It's great. The weekly jams are easily the high point to my week.
But we have to do other things in life, like work and make money so we don't starve to death, meaning having a healthy supply of beer in the fridge. This sometimes conflicts with our weekly jams and sometimes a member isn't with us for a weekly jam. But we carry on regardless.
But this week Osku was unavailable and that means no jam. We are so lucky to have such a great place to jam at Osku's studio, so his importance as a band member cannot be overstated. No Osku, no jam.
This week was one of them and first the reaction is ok, time to rest because there is always is a bit of a psyche-up involved in getting ready for the jam. Kari and I take care of that by having a quickie at Robin's before the jam. Seems to get things going. Then the music, a natural high. This week nothing. This week is sort of............empty.
