She's home

Yes here she is on my lap, what a beaut. The same FG700MS I mentioned in my last post. And she can sing. Of course I don't really know how to get her in the mood yet. I'm still learning where to put my ... fingers? Ok this metaphor is getting out of hand.

Anyway I got the guitar today, and promptly signed up for lessons. Had my first lesson today and I am learning how to read notes and play scales. Hopefully after some practice and pain - it is already getting painful to type with my left hand - I'll be improved for next week's lesson. I have private 1 on 1 lessons, and the teacher was great. The salesperson was different, and much more helpful than yesterday.

I hear that Cibbuano was a guitar player, but.. not anymore? What about Derelict? I heard his dad was known to pull off some mean Petra in his day. Ok I made that up. But there WAS a guitar in his house, so ... whose was it? And if you guys are wondering about BeaverPhearMeister Kev, well he didn't need no stinking instrument. He's pure badass acapella. That's right, he is his OWN instrument! "Puh-che puh uh puh puh puh uh!" Go Kevin!!!!

Man, who told you that I don't play anymore? I play everyday on an acoustic I found in the field!

Don't believe the hype.

You found an acoustic in a field?! Man that's nice.

I found 20 pounds in a field not too long ago. Fields seem to have good things in them.

Hmm, I wonder if I could eke out a living finding things in fields? Like a field treasure hunter or something.

Oh yeah, and I'm still making funny noises with my mouth. I have a "Demon" voice that I'm not allowed to do around Kirsten. It creeps her out.

Field treasure hunter? Not a bad idea, not bad at all.

At least when you found 20 pounds, you could just tuck it away and whistle your way outta there.

When I found the guitar, I had to walk it all the way back home, trying to pretend that I ALWAYS take my guitar out for a run.

Hey Kev, I heard that you found 20 pounds in a field once.

Sara's not allowed to do the Salad Fingers voice. It's one of those brutal DIY Flash cartoons. It's kind of retardo and creepy, but you can check it out here: Salad Fingers Episode 1

Ha ha, whenever someone questions my "old skoolness" ('cause, yes, I spent most of my pre-highschool listening to Christian rock) I always bring up the Nelson Mandella rap Kevin and I did in Junior High, where Kev beatboxed, and we rapped over music from my old Adlib.

Yep, we be bad. (Oh yeah, if you guys want to check out a wicked album, download or buy Late Registration by Kanye West.)

Yeah I thought I rapped about some white dude involved in fighting that apartheid thing. Adlib was the *bomb*! Didn't we compose some mad trax back in the day...

Yeah, Adlib was fun. Some of the stuff we did was cool. Too bad I wasn't into electronic music back then.

Was that Blight and I that did the rap? Sorry, I must have gotten Kevin's beatboxing mixed up with our rap ... drinking to forget Junior High and all that.

That 'Salad Fingers' thing is brutal. It's a little creepy, but for the most part, it makes me regret clicking 'Play'.
