Man, I used to be tough but, I’ve turned in to a sentimental softy. I miss my band, you know?
Not just the playing music part either-the hang.
Good thing, Thirst N’ Howl will be bringing the Party Rock back to the Outback Pub this Friday and Saturday
night.

Good food good music-good hang.
By the way, I gave my first couple of guitar lessons tonight. It went well. It was fun. The first guy showed up with a bass instead of a guitar, which threw me for a brief moment (I had a guy who showed up with a clarinet years ago) but, it’s all good. We can always use another good bass player in this world.
Great, Jack! So you started teaching him how to play the bass? I mean, bass techniques or he was just starting and you needed to teach him basic guitar techniques? You know, I have recently started playing tennis after about 15 years (I used to play a bit in highschool, just for fun) and I went to buy a racket. I was feeling uncomfortable a bit playing it and I asked a teacher on the tennis court if I can do anything with my racket to feel stronger: yes, buy an other one, this one is for 7-8 years old children…
Damn, and I picked it up because it was light! When you don’t have proper guidance, everything works right? So what’s a bass? Just an other guitar :-)
Ovidiu – GuitarFlame.com’s last blog post..“How to build an electric guitar” online workshops
He’s just starting Ovidiu but, he wants to be a bass player. He doesn’t want to use a pick. He wants some bass specific technique, like he doesn’t want to use a pick. I showed him a couple of exercises to start developing some dexterity and we talked a bit about how to think like a bass player.
Guidance is a good word.
It occurs to me that guitars and tennis rackets are both stringed instruments, and can both be swung. Thus, a tennis racket is just another guitar. Great short on tennis and guidance, O.; my eleven year old violinist is considering taking up tennis, now..
But Jack did you ask him if he’s gay? I am still distinguishable!!
We are pullin’ fer ya, Good show on your first recall as der Meistersinger, no?
