Why Stage Left?

Because as a freelance bass player for Houston blues bands, country bands, and the occasional hard rock band (though I don't enjoy playing that genre very much) I am frequently placed on Stage Left, next to the drummer. Plus, in my former life as a classical violist, we were situated towards the left, and occasionally totally on the left if the conductor preferred that somewhat rare but not unheard of stage arrangement.
So in my 1st blog I guess I should list what I'm into this week. Ok, here it is: boxing, books about boxing (4 books checked out from the library), movies about boxing (I plan to rent Girlfight asap), and putting myself on a diet heavy on beans & rice since that's what the boxers eat. Yes, I did see Million Dollar Baby last weekend and boy, did it have an impact on me! I can't wait to go to Krav Maga tomorrow morning and kick ass!
