"Summertime Blues" FL MET 2013

[Hook]

8/10/13 session (no pics. sorry but 5 tunes!)

Can a song be submitted to a festival twice ?
This was the 1st recording of the night and we had yet to find the right placement of the sony stereo mic. The uke is a bit to prominent in this for my tastes but who cares. I'm sitting in the same room with BRUNO!!!
Rock ON!

Summertime Blues"

written by Hook
performed by Bruno & Hook

Another summer in the land of no season
Makes a rational man doubt his reason
You can try a fan or an ice cold beer
But nothing ever helps when summer lasts all year

It's a state of mind or a prison state
When you're trapped by the heat it often manifests hate
Judgment is lost and you know judgment is a must
If it gets any hotter I'm going to spontaneously combust

I got the summertime blues,  whoa
Give me second while I
pour the sweat out of my shoes, whoa
lost in the madness of humidity
summertime is taking it's toll on me

They say global warming might bring a new ice age
With as much as I sweat global warming it sounds like all the rage
I wouldn't mind if it snowed on my parade
I've been marching in this heat without any shade

Chorus

[Flash Harry]

Oh wow!

Another level - isn't really great to play music with another real live human being? Clearly so - this is fab.

[Redler]

Brilliant acoustic rock tune - nice summer feel on lyric! Fest on, fellas!

[Farrell Jackson]

Hey Bruno and Hook, I'm really enjoying listening to this FL MET 2013 musical series you have going on. Great acoustic riffing Bruno and Hook great lyric/vocal expression about the heat in FL.  Jamming with someone besides the recorder is always a treat and it sounds like you two are diggin' the heck out of it. Well done!

I must admit I saw the title and expected an Eddie Cochran cover but was delighted to find a wonderfully inventive piece of accoustic rock, rock on. Roscoe
