Let Me Introduce You To My Friend Al
Al, is short for Alverez. I bought this guitar when I was 26. It was the result of a conversation I had with a friend.
One night at a bar, me and a friend were talking. He asked "What is the one thing you wish you could learn to do?"
I immediately said "Play the guitar"
He said "What's stopping you?"
That hit me like a ton of bricks - I could actually get myself a guitar and learn to play it?! Wow, I was jolted awake, what an epiphany! You mean I can do something on my own and not have to go to school and get approval from a parent or even learn to read music......!!
So I woke up the next day and drove 30 miles to Norwalk, CT to a grungy old guitar store and bought Al for $300.
I also got a Mel Bay book and some other accessories. Went back to my little dive of an apartment in Woodbury, CT and made noise for the rest of the next 3 weeks!
Since then, I have not allowed any obstacles to stand in the way of learning something new! Photography, Woodturning, Watercolor, Building Websites, and best of all Parenting are just a few of the things I have learned on my own.
So, I hope this little tale stands as a challenge to you as well - If you want to learn something, just do it!
By the way, I am a mediocre guitar player, but I love to make noise!
3/30- if music be the food of love, play on
-william shakespeare, twelfth night (act i, scene i)
i'm such a shakespeare nerd. last year i read a book of critical essays on his different works. yeah.
i added this a day early because tomorrow is my first day back at school and i'm going to be hella busy.
also, this picture is a lie, because i don't play guitar. well, i don't play well. and because i don't play well, i gave up trying to learn. i've been playing piano for eleven of my fifteen years, and i think i'm just going to stick with that.
the guitar is my dad's- when he was a teenager (back in the stone age when people rode dinosaurs to high school), he was in a band.
Explored.
