DAY 1

Hey let's go record "This Woman's Work" today!

Why are the chicks following me?

Is it because I am wearing a brown jersey? Do they think I am their mum?

20211222_135852.jpg

All right leave me alone now, I really have to record.

This "woman's work" is a tough song. It's all high up there, with the falsetto and shit, I need to catch my breath on each sentences. What the hell am I wearing?
And what's wrong with the ponytail? I am setting that camera shot also, and there's so much green around me. At first, it was really pleasant, but now every fucking video starts looking like a Mumford and Sons music video, I really have to find different motifs.

The nanny has been sick, then the kids were sick, finally I feel like it's creeping on me. Normally I can hit that A like it's a G, but today it feels like a Gb, really really flat.

Man, this song is supposed to show my physical & technical prowess, but right now I'm ruining the song. I am trying to hit the "AAAAhh" but it ain't working.

Is it because my throat is sore? Why didn't I notice that my throat was sore until now...?

Now I need to go get the nanny again, am I a taxi or what?

I am going to leave all the equipment here, and try to record later....

Seriously though, did the chicken poop on the guitar?

I recorded 2 versions on that day. One of them was ok, the second one was good but then the camera did this:

In case you're asking yourself "what's wrong?", well the shot isn't centered, and I don't know where you've been raised, but there is no way in 2021 I am releasing something that isn't centered 😁

After a nice moment with my wife, when for the first time we spent some time together shopping without the kids, we haven't done that in years, we smoked a blunt and we started giggling in the shop like 2 teenagers, it was fun, I almost forgot about the song, we watched a nice sunset on the mountains.

DAY 2

I need to chill...

I can't get stressed out about a cover. I mean, I know Maxwell's version of "This Woman's work" is like up there, but you can't handle it yourself...It's a big song, what you put out there, it's for everyone to listen to, you don't wanna be the "dude that fucked up This Woman's Work". On any good day, you would have that song, easy peasy.
At the same time, now the throat is really sore, now it's Christmas, how about doing a song that you enjoy, something easy...
In my head ring those 3 words, WE'RE JAMMING.

Oh yeah...I know bob since, forever. It's so easy it's almost a cheat code... Merry Christmas to me.

Ed, do you remember the last time you played that song for your blockchain brothers and sisters?

The year was 2018, it was March the 3rd, you were fucking starving hahaha check this out:

Oh my god. I look so young...

Is this really me?

But I feel so different, I would even daresay I am a total different beast right now, but truth is, the core is here, that's for sure.
The audio, that you can't hear, doesn't really matter. I remember that day like it was yesterday. The walking stick that you see on my left, is the walking stick I had in SA, I was taking my dogs everyday, hoping for a better tomorrow; those long walks just thinking of our next videos, our next posts, our next moves. It all turned out ok for us eventually haha.

A few things happened between that Jamming and that Jamming, this place helped a lot in figuring out what I wanted to do.

20211223_113518.jpg
Just remember, that what we're doing here together, hasn't been done before.

We're just a bunch of people with the same ideas, different aspirations, and what we're building together here, this blockchain, has never been done before, and in some ways, every single one of our votes, is building something. I don't even know exactly what we're doing here, maybe it's just an idea, but for now, ever since I cling on to that idea, good things happened.

Happy closing of the year. I expected to see the changes chickens 🐔 in the video, you know what I mean. Where do we go from here, noone knows but ready to flow ahead? Merry xmas

I've just posted about my chicken, some of them were going through some butt issues, the 3 other are just as happy as usual.

Merry xmas to you too Priscilla!

I saw lol 🤣. I love when they get chatty. And may you have a wonderful closing of the year.

Hello Ed, that pix of the sunset and mountains is awesome, watching it with your beautiful wife is priceless. Always make time for each other, regardless that life is running you around to pick up the nanny.

I loved your jammin' it was fun and brought back good memories.

I repeat, you had me going with the kids and Santa thing. One Christmas when my three boys were small, we fell asleep before Santa came by with all the wrapped gifts. We woke at 5 am, literally minutes before my youngest woke up and yelled Santa!
Phew! it was a close one. We still laugh about it.
Enjoy, cheers and all that good stuff.

THanks for the lovely comment, I am glad I could bring back some good memories!

Hahha that's a funny story, funny that I always remember waking up sooo early as a kid just to be the first one opening my gifts haha. That was a close one as you said.

We've been struggling to find places to hide the gifts around the house, the kids are very good at finding them 😄

Oh, that gift hiding was crazy with my nosey kids, but that's part the thrill for them.

That guitar sounds beautifully crisp....however...
Its fucking Christmas. I need chestnuts, Rudolph, feeding the world last Christmas.....seasonal tacky shite not reminders of hot sunny Caribbean holidays!

Get to it, you have 2 days left!!!

Best wishes to you and your family, I hope you have a wonderful Christmas :-)

I agree, who needs reminders of before kids, those terrible vacations on hot sand and cool blue water.

Glad someone is on my wavelength here lol....those days were overrated! Feel free to join in, Santa Clause is coming to Town, OK ? After 3....

Jingle bells Santa smells, happy halloween.

Thanks, truly appreciated haha.

Got it, you want Kokomo by The Beach Boys, or La Macarena, your typical sweaty Christmas 😄 Carrol.

Hahaha I wish you a wonderful Christmas; and hope Santa is making it rain 😎, or snow.

I like jam and joints too😂😂 Love the beat box!👏👏 So let's vote...9/10🏆 Minus one point cause you don't look stoned enough to be singing Marley!🤣🤣🤣😜

Alright, let's just say that I had some help to get in the mood 😃, it's just not something I want to be known on the blockchain for, then the stygma gets sticky icky.

9 out of 10 , I'll take that!

Your post had me laughing so hard - especially the "seriously did the chicken poop on the guitar?" hahahahahahahaahah

I wanted to hear This Woman's Work!!! you got me all ready for it hahahaha

wow - look at that short hair - its super cool - but the long is the way I know you hehehe

VERY SLICK MY FRIEND. sounding so good - as usual. and youtube this time??? trouble with 3speak??

Hahahaha making dreemsteem laugh is what I am striving for!

Oh don't worry, This Woman's Work will come in time, but it has to be done the right way, otherwise there's no point of doing it at all, you know what I mean?

Hahah yep short hair is weird but thanks for putting it a nice way, and also my face grew a lot in recent years, so it makes sense to let the hair grow too!

THanks for the compliment, and as for not using 3speak, I don't have my main pc anymore, and that was the one with a LAN cable and stable connexion, everytime I try to upload on 3speak with the other laptop, it tells me "connection too unstable" or something like that.
So for now, it's youtube until I can fix the issue, by getting a new pc I guess!

yes i know what you mean! hehehehe it has to be the right way - i agree

and noooooooo the short hair wasn't weird at all!!! it looked super chic!!! really!!!!!!

I actually like it a lot!

but I just know you better with long hair now hehehehe

ahhhhhhh ok - youtube it is then! and get that new pc :)

hehehehee

Will do! I miss using 3speak for sure!

YEeees! THanks so much, love it! So happy right now

That's funny that the chickens followed you. They must like your music as well. Or maybe pooping on your guitar says otherwise🤔 hahaha

Merry Christmas to you and your family. I hope everyone has a good holiday!

HEy brother! When I started playing Jamming, they all went away, probably to go dance hahahha.

Merry Christmas to you, I wonder what exceptional meal you made on Christmas Eve!

I think the backdrop in the first photo, the light blue wooden gate, is very beautiful. and the chair. I think if I ever furnish a new home, I'll ask you first;) but that's all beside the point, your voice is great as always!

Thank you! I agree, that door is so nice, I would want to use it all the time hahah.

Thanks for the furnishing compliments, ahaha if I can call it like this, but we rented the place furnished, which makes me a complete fraud!

It's all a lie! Maybe I am hiring these kids actors to be my children, and same for my wife!!!

And finally, thanks for complimenting my voice, this is the only legit thing in the video 🤣 Merry Christmas!

hahaha i hope you had a great christmas too. oh well, you also chose the furnished place that proves enough taste ;))

Just remember, that what we're doing here together, hasn't been done before.

Ho! Huh? How?!? Merry Christmas!

Merry Xmas to you Art!

I love these stream consciousness type posts you do, You get a really good vision of where you are/were/are going... And a bit of Bob is always the job... and you did the big man's tune justice here.. Great version and the backdrop is cool... Delighted yourself and herself got a bit of "ye" time and even sneaky blunt 👌

Happy Christmas auld stock, hope it was a great one for you and the family.

Hey bud, yeah as you say, just leaving the kids, just for 2 hours, I haven't done that for a long time, as we homeschool them, no complain I love them very much!

Merry Christmas to you, young sprouting branch 😄, I hope you are having blessed festivities, full of mead and meat!

Playing acoustic reggae and singing at the same time is no mean feat. Fair play .

Hey Blanchy, great to see you here! Thanks for the comment, that one was a while back! How did you even end up on it? Scrolling?

Hey Ed. You are friends with my aul siogusta @trucklifefamily and I went into one of your posts of you visiting Spain so I kept going into posts and loved this one the best. When it comes to music I can be an expert level stalker. untitled.gif

can be an expert level stalker.

Hahaha that's hilarious...
