Rocktober Praise!

That picture was taken last Saturday. It was the first ROCKTOBER PRAISE gathering of musicians, my husband is more than honered to have participated in such event, sadly though, I was not present at the said gathering because I'm off to a different meeting which is equally important.

The one in the red shirt is my dear husband sporting his new white guitar. These guys can talk about chords the whole day, discuss gadgets and online finds such as guitars from musciansfriend.

This Thursday, they'll get together again for another rehearsal for a Friday event. See? 

Husband's birthday month

:)

I got so excited about Christmas because of the onset of BER months and forgot that September is my husband’s birthday month. Thirteen days to go to be exact before his big day.

last month, we were talking about it and we agreed that just like what we did on my birthday, we will have lunch or dinner in an "eat all you can" restaurant. Because it is his birthday, he will have  the power to choose :)  I will obliged and probably I'll pay :) haha!

I wish I can give him the new guitar he wants (as he has already sold his old one) but he knows that as of now we have Limited availability of funds so he has to wait and save for it. Some things are worth waiting for right? 

Anyways, off to work now. Hope you all have a good day ahead!! BLESSINGS!!

 

Acoustic Guitars

I dare not have my husband look at these breedlove acoustic guitars because for sure his eyes would lit up and he'd feel bad afterwards because he can't afford the price. haha! My golly these guitars cost more than a hundred thousand pesos :) Sure it is grand and beautiful but costly too. Oh well, if you can afford it, why not di ba? if only I have the means and he needs it, I would gladly buy him one but for now, he has two acoustic guitars na eh and I don't think he needs additional one, not yet :)

Cheer him up

I was trying to cheer up my husband because he's upset with someone from his band, and I knew very well how to cheer him up :) Just showed him different musical instruments like this seven strings schecter c7 hellraiser at guitar center and there he goes smiling na. 

Truth be told, my husband is not that hard to please and he is not easily angered to. When he is mad probably there is more than enough reason for him to be mad. 

Thank God,  he feels ok now. It is still a wonder how music can pacify his heart, it plays a very important role in his life and I honor that.

I wish our future children will be so musically inclined too.

~~~~~~

Anyways, how are you doing? it's just the second day of the week no but I almost everyone I got to talk to is already wishing for the weekend. I guess it's always like that for those who are working. Well, it's only Tuesday, 3 more days to go. I just hope we all enjoy this week and have fun. 

happy Tuesday everyone!

Raining. Musical Saturday

Rainy lazy Saturday.

Today I am to check the venue for our Christmas Dinner Concert ( a fundraising event for our scholarship program) but because it is raining hard, my husband said to postpone it and go straight to church for the worship team practice. 

So here we are now in the church, the husband fixing all the musical instrument they will be using, noting that they need more musical stuff (like bass clarinet stand? )and musicians as well. Oh well, I know he only wants the best and at least he is still not complaining and resigning :) 

How's your Saturday going?  Is it raining in your part of the world too?

Wedgie pick holders

I am sure my husband will love the exceptional wedgie at musicians friend specially their pick holders. This is one of his biggest problem eh,he always as in always lose his picks and it frustrates me a lot. Imagine, one time, we were already in the recording studio and he can't find his pick. He thought he has one inside his guitar case and  and in his gadget case but both cases have no picks at all. Sigh.

I guess a pick holder will be of big help to him. Nope I am not buying him one. I will ask him to buy one for him self. hehe.

Parker guitars

Right now I'm showing the husband these parker guitars and he's like "wow! that's nice! and his eyes are popping out :) really,  when it comes to musical instruments specially guitars he's always like that. I know he doesn't need new one now but if you ask him, he'll say "yes, I need one". men oh men..

What he need actually is a gig bag, it is so hard to travel in our motorbike without a nice and sturdy gig bag, his guitar is quite heavy. We were supposed to check gig bags and not guitars but as usual, just like what he normally does in a mall every time he sees a music store, he will stop and spend time there. I'm used to it now :)

I wish these guitars and music gadgets are not that expensive. If they're not that pricey probably the husband has 4 or 5 now. Ridiculous. He has only two hands who can play one guitar at a time di ba? But I'm sure you understand, sometimes I am like that too when it comes to bags..hehe..

anyways, back to browsing now, the guitar man is waiting.

supposedly gift for a music lover

I've mentioned in my other blog that we are forgoing gifts this Christmas (well, at least for the remaining persons that we weren't able to buy a gift yet) Sadly that includes my husband.

I hope I can buy him something that he loves, which can only be a gadget for his guitar- or better yet a new yamaha fg700s Folk Acoustic guitar, I'm sure he'll thank me endlessly for that but I'm sure he'll understand why I am not giving him any gift this Christmas. Except for my gift of undying LOVE which is priceless. :)

And I think that is the best gift anyone can receive anytime of the year di ba?

Customized box for guitar effects

The husband is doing a DIY box for his guitar effects. I'll definitely post picture of it here.

He actually inquired about the price of a custom made box and he was surprised that it is so expensive. Thus, he decided he'll make one for himself.

Last Saturday, we bought the materials needed (we spent hours looking for every items he need plus extra hours looking at some musical instruments also, he can't resist it! went to see an  akai mpc at guitar center, a drum set, speakers and a lot more. Good thing I was with him at that time, if not, it has probably taken him the whole day.

So anyways, he started the project already (keeps him awake till past midnight) and I hope he can finish it this weekend (because it keeps me awake too!)

I'll keep you posted :)
