for yesterday’s day-long picket i ended up being a morning speaker + one of our 3 rotating chant leaders + bandleader for 3 half-hour performances, the latter of which involved extensive improvised banter and chant interludes as well as, uh, singing and ‘dancing’ and doing all the actual ‘bandleader’ stuff where i like signaled whether to sustain the song and queued things for the setlist and stuff, a job i had despite literally no longer remembering how to read music let alone any kind of actual qualification

by the end my voice was so shot i could barely speak & i have been basically bedridden from exhaustion and muscle soreness. however

i had

so much fun

#it was ... so good #people said good things about it.....#one of my department organizers told me i have a great singing voice and am extremely charismatic and fun??? which. chrirst #box opener #i cannot believe how much more fun i had getting up on some stairs and making little jokes at an audience about how #it was time to do our. union themed ghostbusters parody song.#than like. anything else i've done lately #by kind of a lot #the most fun possible human experience is doing improvised banter and stupid little dances on a stage #while people who can actually play music reflect glory onto you.#now. uploaded twitter clips suggest i did. only adequately #but in the moment it was GREAT fun
