Ok, just ignore her posts in "what's everybody doing today", SHE'S BAKING COOKIES! Snappy, try some bacon! Maybe I will!!
That's actually pretty close to truth in a sense.
Something new to try! Certainly warm enough! LOL
If you've ever played in a band you might find these funny. I've heard several of these before, a couple cracked me up. Anyway, I found it on the Bluegrass Today website, credit to them.
Do we have superstitions in bluegrass music? Oh we have plenty of them, but like a lot of things related to our music, they don’t get a lot of mass media attention. Here are a few that I’m aware of; I’m sure you know of others:
Never play three Flatt & Scruggs songs in a row.
It’s okay to play three Bill Monroe songs in a row, but after doing it, the mandolin player in your band must turn around three times and say, “I miss you King Wilkie.” Failure to do this may result in a band vehicle breakdown later that night.
If you perform "Down in the Willow Garden" at a bluegrass festival after dark, it needs to be followed by a song with the word “supernal” in it, or a serious accident involving a golf cart will take place on the festival grounds within 24 hours.
(Band members with song superstitions was common, and carts, any kind of cart was bad news.)
When singing Matterhorn, it’s good luck to use a different “A” name for “Albert the Australian” every time, like “Alvin the Australian,” “Alan the Australian,” “Aaron,” “Andy,” “Ambrose,” “Akbar,” “Alfonse,” “Arvid,” etc.
(I played with a guy who would sometimes sing the wrong words just to mess with the audience. He used to crack me up!
)
If a bridge pin pops out of your guitar it means that somewhere a guitar player is blowing a g-run.
If an MC messes up your band name, you’re going to have poor CD sales that day.
You should always change strings where no one can see you.
Taking a band photo will lead directly to personnel changes within three months.
Don’t wear socks on the day of an album or single release.
Never let a bass cart or dolly cross your path.
Never play a song in Bb on the night of a full moon.
Never carry twin fiddles in a band if you travel in a van. (This also applies to banjo pickers, lol)
Never sing a quartet with only three singers.
After eating garlic, don’t sing harmony on one mic.
Underpaying band members leads directly to personnel changes within three months.
