Joined: August 2002 Posts: 8307 Location: Tennessee | I'm just flat out energized. And it's not the four shots of espresso I tend to injest a couple of times a day. I don't want to work, I just want to bang on the guitar all day. Shoot ... I'll probably be up half the night for the next month just working through all the possibilities that opened up for me over the past five days. Friday we covered two to three days worth of stuff. Saturday was an even more accelerated learning experience. There was a killer clinic (of sorts) Thursday night at O'Kane's ... featuring a whole bunch of really great players too numerous to mention individually - and one kazoo-laden Monkees medley that brought down the house. There was another killer clinic Friday night involving the best of the best in acoustic guitar-land, fueled by heaping plates of Sonny's and some really special grilled Bratwurst, and fortified by assorted lubricants highlighted by none other than gen-u-wine 'shine ("No Flame" radius of 15 feet recommended). The Saturday night show was a blast to watch, and some even had our own little Ted Mack moment that bordered on the surreal. Only to be followed by a meeting of the guitaroholics in the 12-Step Room until it was time for the sun to almost rise, the sated to topple over, and the truely twisted to take another bonsai run at Huddle House immortality. With just enough time left over to shower up, squeeze the Visine bottle a couple of times, and work our pulverized fingertips one last time in a "post-mortem" session led by some true masters of the craft including DeBanjo, Templeman, Cliff, Joyce, Davis and Beal. Thanks to Iffy and his lovely enabler, I got to the airport and on my plane. And now all I want to do is go try to play all those things that flew into my head. So sitting next to me on my flight to Los Angeles was, and I kid you not, 1st Runner-up for Miss America in 2007. And it was anti-climactic. Seriously. | ||
