(2,631 posts)I've been playing Christmas music since well before Halloween. Every year is a continual grind to get every bit of phrasing and time together with my band mates. And just as we hit a pleasant spot someone decides to take it to another level and that sensation of drowning in music theory strikes again. Tonight I'm playing a Christmas Eve service and I wish I could say I was looking forward to it in the slightest. Instead, I'm buried in the details of the performance. I hope someone else gets something out of it because it's just no fun at all to me.
And then every once in a while it happens. We all let loose and just let it flow. It's magical for a minute or two and then back to the grind. Arghhh.... I should be playing through everything again but my fingertips are bruised and my head is spinning.
Have a Merry Christmas everyone.
