A Blast from the Past

This week is the annual Guitarfest at the Eastman School of Music. Years in the past I’ve always been very much involved but I’ve fallen out of the guitar circle since graduation two years ago, partially from traveling and partially from not playing. It was not only great to see old classmates but also some fresh new faces at Nick’s concert tonight. After chatting up with Justin for couple minutes I thought why not have a guitar party to reconnect with the gang?! And just like that I sent out the invitation for Sunday evening after the final LAGQ concert.
Ok I didn’t realize just exactly how disconnected I was from the guitar community until I opened my address book and found only three contacts for local guitar friends including my professor! God, I used to be the one to put together the guitar contact list!
Most people I ran into at the concert didn’t even know I was in town and that included Justin who literally lives across the street from me! Now I’ve got to bribe for friendships with food, how typical. I always tell people, food and sex always works. It only takes one and I’m not offering sex.
