Title: Note to self: Call Your Mother!
Post by: edwardofhuncote on May 10, 2015, 03:51:51 PM

It's Mother's Day.
 
Mine... not a music fan. Not even a little. (seriously, my Mama really don't dance, and my Dad just plays the banjo) But she recognized long ago I was quite passionate about it, and encouraged me in her own passive ways.  
 
Now she wonders aloud - ...if you already have one of the best basses in the world, why on Earth would you need two? Well, Mom... because I need the best fretless bass in the world too... =)
 
Happy Mother's Day to all it applies.

About twenty years ago my Mom had a revelation when talking to one of her friends.  Her friend asked:
So what is Paul doing now?
 
After some reflection on the question (my day job was manufacturing) my Mother answered:
Oh, he's a musician!
:-D
She finally understood how passionate I am about playing/ making/ creating music!

Happy belated Mother's day to all the Mothers in Alembic land including Susan and Mica !  
 
I visited my Mother yesterday with a Spring Bouquet of flowers in my hand and a card. At mothers day I always write on the card ;
Mutter Fruhling   ,in German that spells  Mother Spring  . At 89 years of age she still gets a kick out of that . ( in spelling fruhling there are 2 dots over the u, umlaut).
