HAPPY BIRTHDAY EDISAURIS!![/size]
WEEKEND BIRTHDAYS ARE THE BEST, HAVE FUN![/size]
You are absolutely right! And I am going to sleep in tomorrow...hurrah!
DH and I went to see Ed Gerhard, an amazing guitarist, play in a very cold warehouse. He have seen him before, and it was a small, enthusiastic crowd and everyone got to talk with him. I talked to him at intermission and told him how I had been yearning for several years now to hear him played his Weissenborn guitar again. He played it for most of the second half, which thrilled me to bits.
This is a guitar which was made in the 1920's and copied over and over again. Ed is working with a guitar company in Oregon to make the definitive Weissenborn-again. (His is falling apart and he's going to retire it.)
A wonderful but cold concert. I wonder if Ed's hands were freezing and if he needed a heated computer mouse to keep them warm between songs!
