I think I just taught myself to use InDesign to make a gig poster, with a little live-in tech support. I knew another design program, Quark, and long ago, PageMaker, which I probably forgot by now. How many singer-songwriters have high-end pretty new Macs (gotten on a deal and a bit imperfect, but still good) and high-end design and photo programs? They probably have to pay for posters. I'm lucky that way. I'm lucky in lots of ways. Now I need to see if it worked to make and e-mail a pdf, then make another poster for another gig. Likewise, in multiple skills, I was playing the keyboard last night, which is so fun. Matt (Robbins) had been here practicing, so it was out and will stay out. I am still pretty faithful to my baritone ukulele. But it's time to pull out my electric guitars, the Parker Fly and a borrowed Danelectro baritone that I hope my friend will let me buy. I need to play them in some upcoming gigs.
