Wild Wing Cafe in Charlottesville

 Last Friday, I went to Wild wing café to listen to the band playing. That band consists of basically vocal, guitar, keyboard, bass guitar, and Drums. My excitement at that place is indescribable. I realized how much I needed this loud, but lovely sound. I should play guitar in some band sometime soon.  I want to play on the stage!!  I was so excited to listen the band music!!

I have played the guitar for 12 years. And I also have played in the band. I like playing guitar and being in the band. I used to play classic (?) American Rock, such as Deep purple, Eric Clapton, Eagles, and so on.  And also I played Japanese pops the band especially for women singers. I will definitely write here about my favorite music later, especially from Japanese music scene.

The band I listened last Friday, the members are around 50 years old. I asked their currier, the drummer said he has 35 years of currier. I was happy to hear that. Because I could imagine I could play also when I am 50 years old.

And I vaguely understand what they are going, what are their ideal sound, rhythm, and groove. I think there is a specific rhythm or groove for each races. Each race has its own sense of time, rhythm, and accent.  As for me, maybe Japanese, I am absorbed in more up tempo sound, sharp sense of time. But American (White) seems to be slower than us. I am interested in Black.

I want to be in some band here. Even though the different atmosphere, there is something I can learn. I am eager to play.

So, I looked back my currier. I am amateur musician. But some of my live concert was recorded, of course by me. So, I checked my play, and analyze my strength and weakness. I just start practice again!! I hope I can play on stage soon!!
