I played Ernie’s On Stage by myself on Tuesday night and it was a little busier than Monday. Ed Ashton stopped in to say hello, which was nice as did Brenda, Ernie and Andy. I played all their favourites and rehearsed some new arrangements of five unreleased tunes. The new tunes were
Something I Cannot Have, Fever, Something Missing(Night Become Day), I Lose My Head and For Too Many Years.
