100 Covers Songs – Week 3
OK, it looks like I’ve been slacking, but some important things have gotten in the way of my cover song homework. First, Natalie and I had to make an impromptu visit to Florida for a family emergency. Then, I turned 30 had a fun little gathering at my gig Stout in Brighton to celebrate and a nice family barbecue at my friends the Wojas.
So here I am at week three and about a third of the way through my goal of learning 100 covers. I thought I’d share a few more of the accomplishments and list of songs to learn.
