I played two actual gigs this weekend for a change. One with the Sonic Boomers in Stevenage and one solo at Milton Ernest. That was good fun and felt almost like the old days for a shining moment or two. But it’s Monday now and back to the usual routine though its lovely and sunny and I just took an evening stroll. It’s still pretty warm.

Here is a tune that could do with a bit more love: an instrumental tune from last year that I had forgotten about.It’s a sort of funky rocky prog trancy thing type thing. Me on keys and guitar….

Anyway back to moaning about stuff again. Now where were we? I am working on some music and taking a break for a moment. Usual musculoskeletal gripes of course. That’s not the title by the way.

The coming US presidential election is a wonderment indeed.

The fact that you can get a college degree in some states based on “creationism” blows my mind. I get a lot of friend requests from the US on facebook and many are musicians of sorts. They are usually OK and not flat earth bible thumpers.

I have no problem with genuine people of faith, but if they take things as factual and not allegorical that’s a problem. The fact that many Trump supporters are WASP’s is odd as the last time I looked in a bible it was saying stuff like “Love thy neighbour” and “A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another”. 
Trump is if you actually  your read the bible pretty close to its description of the anti-christ. Now I have friends who follow many religions ( I have made music with Irish Catholics, Rastafarians, Hindus, Sikhs and Muslims and Jews) and some who are secularist  and some who have no beliefs at all. so I am not pushing any agender.
As has been mentioned before you can now buy ammo from a vending machine…

Doesn’t look like God is going to save America any time soon from where I am standing. Perhaps it must fall before it can rise again? I would be delighted if a woman of color was the next POTUS.

Sadly I dont think its likely
