Rock 'n Roll Accordions!

Brian Wilson would be happy to hear that I got an accordion yesterday. Colin and I stopped by Music Go Round on our lunch break and as I was talking to David, I saw this accordion. I started playing on it and it sounded good and felt good and had multiple reedsets and was only $150. So I bought it (David gave me a discount too!) and played it a lot last night. I ordered some new straps for it (it has some shitty pieces of cloth for straps right now).

I've printed out a Stradella Bass System chart which looks challenging, but fun. Circle of fifths!

I played along to the main theme in Dune. Haha.
