I’m leaving X/Twitter, as I’m uncomfortable continuing to support, through my use of X, the owner’s erratic response to (& support of?) toxic extremism on the platform. You can find me on BSky or IG as aaronenglish ... Best to you all!
@lifeisafestival Absolutely stunning buildings!!
By “bells” I meant the ancient Glockenspiel installed in the old church there. While on a German tour I stopped in Alsfeld to look around…& made a field recording of the song that the glockenspiel plays - something to use in a song someday, maybe
the opening of the deer hunting season, which doubles the population of the town overnight.
So it’s a dangerous cliché, this idea that “nothing happens” the country. Still, we were honored to bring a little bit of #Nashville city life to their town. Thanks to all who came out!
Just played a Nashville #WritersRound concert with Goldpine here in Unionville, MO.
Rural concert series like this are a big deal: they bring #SingerSongwriters to communities that wouldn’t otherwise have access.
But that doesn’t mean there’s nothing happening in this little town: Tom says that the concert series has to compete with the Mennonite Thanksgiving happening tonight (open to everyone), high school football game (the heartbeat of so many farming communities), and
@danikahmusic called my visit a “practice run” - a good way to look at it, as we eventually we’ll probably go in for something more serious. So, better to get familiar with ‘em in advance, cuz hospitals are a whole ‘nother world.
Those gowns, tho, are _drafty!_
Beth took me to & from my first-ever hospital procedure yesterday. I’m recovered well & at home.
Of course as I lay there in my hospital room I found a bunch of faces in the medical equipment.
