Guitar Man - Monday 2/18/2008


It looks like it was foggy while I waited in the car for Hydra to pick up some new strings for the classical guitar he bid on and won at the Round-up auction yesterday. Actually, the flash went off unintentionally (well, I guess I can't speak for the flash's intentions, but I was surprised) and this was the effect.

We looked the guitar up online and besides sounding lovely, it seems to be a very good one made by a renowned L.A. luthier.

Hydra, should I say what kind??

Soapbox: What has the Congress been doing, having hearings on drug and steroid use in sports? Don't we have a war going on? Don't we have plenty of other things that they are actually supposed to be doing? Drug and steroid use is a matter better left to law enforcement and the leagues themselves. If the leagues aren't paying enough attention, doesn't it fall to law enforcement rather than Congress!?

Guitars in waiting



Took the photo of Arlo Guthrie’s guitars on stage before the music started.

It was a wonderful concert, opened by The Mammals, which is headed by Pete Seeger’s grandson, Tao Rodriguez-Seeger. Terrific folk and rock group.

I didn’t check my batteries. The dozen or so photos I thought I might have gotten, I didn’t. All sans flash, of course. The photo on the right is the only one that came out very well at all.
