Too much time to think?

I was sitting around the other day. Just strumming my acoustic on the backporch of my house. I was thinking of the upcoming GTG vs. BMP softball game. Then I thought to myself, how to we establish the GTG? I get the question “What is GTG?” I always smile because a lot of people know that there is a “GTG” but no one knows what it stands for. GTG stands for “Good Time Gang”. But thats just letters. GTG to me means more than just three letters. Its a group of people or musicians that are brought together out of one thing in their lives they love the most. Which is music. I know that is my number 1 passion. It surpasses anything else. Nothing makes me feel more connected to my soul than playing music. But how does one explain that to someone who asks what the GTG is? It’s a record label. It’s a community. It’s got its own super band. It’s a friendship. 

So this is where I differ from a lot of other people except for maybe Tommy when I start to think. I was thinking about The History of the GTG. And I was thinking of it in a novel context. I started thinking of certain chapters. Because if you think of it, the GTG’s history is divided up into chapters. Well at least it is in my eyes. This may seem odd to you, but to me, as someone who likes to have the vast GTG musical catalogue archived on my computer, this is totally normal. So I give you my outline of the The History of The GTG.
