At times you run across this itchy feeling that someone thinks you're a =
poser just because you're wearing shades indoors. Here are a few other =
reasons why people (myself primarily) may be wearing their Ray-Bans.


1) Can't find a convenient place to store them, so hang them on your =
nose
2)Work as an electrician during the day, on lighting maintenance. =
Looking up into lights all the time just gets to you after a while.
3)Eye muscles twitch at times from over thirty years livin' with the =
same woman.=20
4)Don't want to get caught staring at women's breasts and have it affect =
your standing in the gubernatorial race,,
5)Don't want to get caught staring at women's behinds and have it affect =
the situation when you and the wife get in the car for the drive home,,
6)Don't want to get caught sleeping while your best friend, wife, or =
your boss pours out his (or her) soul to you.
7)Stage lighting CAN be a bit bothersome.
8)Mindful of a time gone bye,,especially if they are Ray-Ban Wayfarers. =
(Blatant advertising ploy)
9)Don't have time for the outside world, when your trying to concentrate =
on the notes traversing your deepest soul.
10)And yes,,they do look cool, so who cares if someone thinks that's =
odd.

Give a listen to my latest blues album, entitled "I Don't Owe You NO =
Damn Excuses, Thank You Very Much" Available on the Smelly Smerf label =
(sic).

Seriously, give it a break, fellas. It's None of your business who wears =
what, when it comes down to it. I mean, exactly what have we =
become,,"The Reality Police", that is, in a "blues" sense? Geez Louise.

Not to neglect the harp content,,,I play damn good, with or without the =
shades.
