Fortunately, there was a bigger piece of me, that has a clarity, that has hope. This bigger piece, I believe to be one aspect that keeps me clean and sober. promo II My Megalomania At Midnight (A Mississippi Tall Tell of Rock N Roll Fantasies, Heart Breaks, and Disasters During Hurricane Katrina)

I still think that Charles playing guitar was something very magical. Used to think he was born like that. He probably was. He had also been playing for almost two decades. Charles music (some of his later music) I was just starting back in 2006, I was playing with my Krammer that I had bought in Korea in 1999. Back then I didn’t think I could play unless I was drunk.

 Before leaving for the Army, 1998,  I had played a bit on keyboards, with a band that never left the trailer park . Charles had shown me the basic chords. Taught me how to play Bob Dylan’s “knocking on heavens door” G, D, C chords, remembered it with mnemonic God Damn Cigarettes.

I have songs that motivate me. When I learn how to play these theme songs I feel more empowered. The more I play guitar I realize being good is like every thing else; it’s a matter of practice. I admit most of my music needs a lot ah work; yet everyonce and a while I rocked ya. link here track 1 2016 jam from Ground Zero Blues Club 2009

Charles, myself, and a guy named ‘Heath’ were on Charles created website www.multidementional.net.

I was writing this story, I left Gulfport for Clarksdale, in 2006, after losing a teaching job, fierce break up with one ‘I’ll love you forever don’t call me again.’

It hurt bad, at the time, there was a piece of me I allowed to be broken, the character ‘Head Trip.’ Fortunately, there was a bigger piece of me that knew she was bad, that had a clarity, that had hope. This bigger piece, I believe to be one aspect that keeps me clean and sober.
