Bitch Let's Do It

This song was written on the playa, Thursday, August 19th, 2024, sometime in the early daylight hours. 

I had wandered into a Piano Bar Camp and persuaded one of their folks to let me play their grand piano.  I quietly started playing some ambiance in D major scales with the a sustain pedal when a young couple walked in.  He asked to play drums- yes- and his female friend asked me to write a song.  We wrote it on the spot- stream of consciousness- played with vocal, piano and drums. After we finished our one run through of the song we were politely asked to leave the camp because we were too loud.

I wandered not that much farther to a jam camp, where there was a drummer with a guitarist and vocalist.  I asked to sit in.  I taught the three chords- Em-D-C to the woman with the pink electric guitar, and I sang through a microphone made of an old corded phone handset.  While we were playing this new playa song “Fuck Yer Burn”, folks waiting in line across the street were listening, with a few dancing or fist pumping along.

The next day, Friday, I performed this song at the Burning Man Airport lounge with my band THE ALL YOU CAN EAT ORCHESTRA, which was booked for eight shows in four days in multiple venues out in Black Rock City.  We performed the song as a four piece with drums, guitar, keyboard and myself on bass and vocal.  There is a crude video recording somewhere.

This recording was made in the afternoon on Labor Day, September 2nd, at home in my living room in Las Vegas.  I performed all the sounds, mostly all in one take.

The stems will be available for remixing at www.terboted.com/songs, have at it.
