First four hours- complete sensory overload. Felt like RainMan at a fire drill...
I knew there would be a lot of stuff... but, really, had NO idea it would be THAT much stuff.

Of course, I was positively giddy at the Lowden booth... even BEFORE I met Richard (yes, we are now on a first name basis). Once you get used to the glitz, noise, barely dressed convention girls and shear size of it all, t'was cool to scope-out just the things that really interest me...

... then discovering the cool things you didn't know existed. For instance, there is this small company called "Blackbird" who have designed a very interesting acoustic travel guitar made of phenolic resin/ carbon fiber. They are still in prototype, but I think they are really on to something in terms of materials and design...
And then, there's just hanging with all the OFC gang which is always a blast.
I met Russ aka MusicaMex... in fact, we roomed together... Very Cool HumanBeing, Russ is. Turns out- we share a close common connection from years before OFC was ever conceived....

Great Time.

We were just discussing how to get into the show to see guitars. Something else to think about. Took me a couple tries to notice Paul's shirt, a couple more to see that they appear to be in front of the Scheckter booth and then I just noticed the guy behind them with the big grin on his face. They must look good from the back, too.

4th chord? Oh, you mean IV chord! Yeah, I already know that one. Whew! For a second I thought you meant there was more than the I-IV-V! Like, a "fourth chord!" That'd be somethin', wouldn't it?

About 40% of the fun of these shows is the people watching. Saturday is always the big people watching day with all the rock star wannabees and their half naked girlfriends.

Not to be critical or anything, but...
if those implants in the boothbimbos were pushed up a little more, they'd look like chipmunks!

Not that there's anything wrong with that.
