Happy Ending
Thank you Goez Instruments in Maplewood, MO!
I got word that my guitar will be ready on Monday and may not even need a set-up with her brand new neck. The even better part is that Taylor is picking up the entire bill, as they should. I will get to visit her at the shop tomorrow, to make sure I am happy with the cosmetics of the new neck.
She will play better than ever, when all is said and done!
The credit union where I work is finally going to have a summer softball league and it looks like I will be able to squeeze some time in to play. Talking about softball with Dave last night reminded me that it is not a bad idea to hit the batting cages for some batting practice. I think the last time I played ball, Reagan was in office.
I am so tired right now and I am seriously thinking about standing myself up for my date tonight. A big part of me wants to go home, polish off a bottle of shiraz, watch my shows, and pass out. I may be able to drag Doug to Jerry's show tomorrow night, anyway. A really cool guy named Corey came up to me after the gig last night and mentioned that his band, Tongue-n-Groove is playing tomorrow night. I really want to hear some live music on my night off. Doug and I were planning on going to 1860's Hardshell Cafe in Soulard, however, The Ten Mile House where Tongue-n-Groove is playing is just as close. Corey mentioned that a rep from Sony records is supposed to hear his band on Saturday. I wished him luck and I told him I would come out on Saturday. I certainly hope the Sony rep is legit and not just blowing smoke up his ass. I know far too many people who have had a vast amount of smoke blown up their asses by "talent managers" or "record execs" or "A&R men." I tend to be overly cautious, ask a lot of questions, take business cards, and do a lot of research. I am looking forward to hearing a good original funk band, nonetheless.
Anyhoo, my plan is to drag Doug to Jerry's show and then to see Tongue-n-Groove. I think I can get what I want, if I play my cards right, if you know what I mean.
Laters!
