This is my first guitar, and the only guitar I've ever sold (Yeah, I know I might have hoarding tendencies)
It wasn't very good, but it would have been cool to have it hanging on my wall.

For a couple of blessed moments I was elated.
Then I looked a bit more closely at the numbers.
It seems the bots have been at it. It's my first time and it kinda sucks. My hopes of a large audience and huge streaming numbers are pretty much on life support...🧵

I found a before picture.
There are quite a few pictures of perfect pedalboards, and it might be a nice change seeing one with a more lived in feel

...closed due to a traffic incident, so we had to take the scenic route.
This meant crossing a mountain and, being a road with less traffic than the main route, driving on ice.
Luck for me, I wasn't driving. My traveling companion likes - actually prefers - to drive. And I'd rather not.

Traveling for gigs in the Norwegian winter
The gig this weekend was about an hour and a half drive away from home. We - me and my friend (and bass player) had planned to drive together.
10 minutes before I was being picked up, I read in the local news that the road we planned on taking, was.. 🧵

The case is really cool, IMO. I actually inherited it from my great grandmother.
The amp in the background is not what you might think, though. But that's a story for another day.

Packing my old gear case I found my childhood address.
It's been almost thirty years since that address was current, and my folks moved out of there more than twenty years ago, so the phone number most probably won't reach anyone I know

I've got a gig this weekend, so I did a little pedal board maintenance.
Still a mess underneath though 🤷♂️

So I released my tune "På kollsvart vei" ("On a pitch black road" in Norwegian), in 2018.
I drew the cover illustration during meetings at work. And took pictures of the process.
I planned on making a video, but that never reached the top of my todo-list, so I'll try sharing them here.

This one was inspired by the view out my office window back in 2015. Like a lot of my drawings it's mostly made during meetings at work, so that kinda makes sense.
Now I mostly work from home, so I can mute and play guitar during meetings, so drawing has kinda taken a backseat.
