Funk and funk. The best of both worlds.

I now have the opportunity to learn a delightfully groovy, funk-style bass line for a song we intend to cover with the band. It is quite the tricky lick that will take a bit of work to figure out and even more time to master. This is what I call "good funk."

I also revealed what is known as a "bad funk" today. This basically manifested as my lack of motivation to do any of the cleaning I had intended to do. The day was my oyster and I did not even bother to polish it up even a little. I just did what I used to do as a kid... wasted time. It is kind of frustrating to realize it and sort of emphasizes the lameness all by itself.

So... whenever I was not working on the "good funk" I happened to be allowing the "bad funk" to rule my day. This is probably never going to happen to me again... though, I would never have expected it to happen in the first place. Maybe I will actually do something to change things up next time. Ya. We will go with that for now.
