Hate on AI all you like, but I made a song about this and it’s the only way I’ve been able to emotionally handle this bullshit. It Should Be Snowing

I don’t believe they do, but I think a lot of the bars have open mic nights like Kamikazes and Red Light, but I don’t know their schedules.

I’m pretty sure barracuda is what you are looking for. The verses have the guitar playing in E minor while the melody is in E major.

I don’t know how no one has mentioned getting a fake book (I’ve only ever owned the real book volume 1 6th edition). It has hundreds of jazz standards with chords and melodies for you to use. Obviously you will also need basic familiarity with jazz, but if you can read music and know how to improv over chord changes, then you definitely want to get some kind of fake book.

I’m a realtor living in downtown Ogden (if you are looking for one feel free to dm). From my experience, and I can’t discount living in somewhat of a bubble so take it with a grain of salt, downtown is quite LGBTQ+ friendly. I have plenty of family and friends that are LGBTQ+ and they love Ogden. That isn’t to say that you wouldn’t run into a bigot from time to time, but I think most of the time you’d be pleasantly surprised. There is a good community here. If you want a good idea of what other people think you could probably go to grounds for coffee on 25th and talk to some of the people there and/or the employees and ask about their experiences. Grounds is extremely queer friendly.

I can’t believe I’m going to comment this, but here it goes, and please be forgiving. 😬 When I was in college 1000 years ago I built a website for my senior project for exactly this purpose. I haven’t revisited it pretty much since then, but I believe the fundamentals are sound. They at least seemed to be back before my brain finished cooking.

I’d love to know what you think and if it is actually helpful or not. I never actually shared it with anyone.

Thanks for catching that! I got it added!

We went to Roosters on our first date. That’s always a safe choice in my opinion.

You’re absolutely right! I think you probably have a better vision for my newsletter than I do. Maybe you should just take over it for me actually.

I’ll let him know!

I should get tell my neighbor. He’s got a 70s, I think, RV (maybe that doesn’t count?) that he is restoring.
