Modus Operandi

Welcome to Substantial Penalty For Early Withdrawl - SPFEW for short. I had always wanted to be in a band with that name. Problem is, I came up with the band name without knowing how to play a musical instrument. Fast forward 20+ years...and I still think it's a great name for a band, but I'm still sorely lacking skills on any musical instrument (despite having a two basses, one electric guitar, and an old drum kit).

Given these musical ambitions, this blog will capture my bloviations, pontifications, and reflections on the music I enjoy and my struggles to broaden those horizons.

Look for a weekly update, innovatively titled "Bands I Like". You should find over time, I'll like veer into other topics. Get ready for a long, strange trip...
