As anyone who knows me knows, I am a musician. I play guitar and drums, and I sing. Last summer, when I was having Grant Harding's birthday party up at the cabin I was staying at, my electric guitar got broken, one of the pegheads just broke straight off. Which sucked, because I like electric guitar 8000 times as much as I like acoustic.

Since I didn't get a job until second semester this year, I didn't have any money to do anything with, and once I did, other expenses came up. Long story short, I managed to dent the ever-loving shit out of one fret on my electric with a pair of pliers I kept in the case to tune it with, ruining its playability.

So about a month ago, I took it up to Yale's and had them install new pegheads and set it up and everything, and I asked them if they would replace the dented fret, to which they said sure. However, the caveat was that Dave Yale had to take it up to Syracuse and have his luthier do it, which he said he'd do the next week or so.

I called yesterday, and they said they did the pegheads the previous day, but the fret still wasn't done. So I was like fuck this, and when Joel and I went up to do our traffic court thing, Mom went up to Sayre and got the guitar. After Joel and I got done with traffic court, Mom and I headed down to Williamsport to R.M. Sides and I took the axe into their luthier, who said the guitar would be finished today (Friday). After I dropped that off, I did my usual thing of playing with all their shit, and Chris Bovard seemed to like it because I actually knew what I was playing. I happened upon the acoustic section of the store, and while I was comparing a few of the instruments, Mom came up to me and said "Okay, which one do you like?"

I didn't realize it was a loaded question.

I showed her a couple I was really digging, and she's like "Okay, so which one do you want. I'll float you a loan." I turned it down because I felt bad, like, it wasn't a dire need for me to have an acoustic guitar, even though my old one is badly needing repairs. But pretty soon she was like Wayne Brady on that episode of Dave Chappelle where he hands Dave the pipe and says "smoke this." Mom was like "David, you will pick out a guitar you want or else we will have a problem." Dead serious.

So I left the store with a new Yamaha acoustic. That is, of course, after Thrad and his friend Andy came down and met us there. I tried out literally 50 guitars before I decided on that one and I am wicked glad. So now all hell will break loose with my recordings. And Thrad approves too.

After that, I headed over to Thrad's for a bit to chill with him and Andy, who is cool shit. Thrad has great friends too, it seems. Sucks that we didn't get to hang a whole lot, but I at least got to show them the new songs I wrote recently.

Oh, and speaking of which, I'm gonna put some links to mp3s up soon. I wrote music for Dan Swain and Mallory Soon-To-Be-Swain's upcoming wedding and I'm really proud of it.

Oh, and pictures of me and Sarah too. We are awesome. :-*

Okay, that's the end of this one.

Yes, you are an awesome musician. The music you sent a while back was top-notch. You're exactly the kind of person we need on the Tabpole.com Forums. It's another site by our friend NuTang Dave. It'd be an honor if you joined.
