Jackpot!
Won the lottery with my new guitar teacher. He's 10 shades of awesome.
He may or may not (but most likely may) be a hippy. A super cool awesome hippy.
His name is Steve.
He refers to us as "musical humans" and also "guitar humans"
I like being referred to as a musical human.
I hear he is one of those people that can hear a song and just play it, with all of the intricate styling he had heard.
He is hilarious and cool, and he calls everyone by name.
He seems like a genuinely good guy. I'm pretty excited about the next seven weeks of class.
On our first day he taught us "(Sitting on the) Dock of the Bay" by Otis Redding. Well, until we got to the pesky F chord.
The road to my musicianship is currently sunshine and light, and paved with tie-dye and rose-colored glasses.

the pesky F chord
I've noticed a lot of professional musicians just drop the low F so they don't have to bar it. Slackers.
Good for you, Von!
Here's to sunshine and light and awesome guitar teachers.
I know have this stuck in my head. You might prefer the less antiquated cover.
Will you play me a song in 2 WEEKS OMG. <3
Jennifer, I was preferring this one.
Ooops, different song.
There's also a fine song by Game Theory, Girl With A Guitar, which is more applicable, but not found on the internozzles. Maybe I will send it to Von.
Dang it, my second choice for a good song was Two Guitars Clash by Stiff Little Fingers, but STILL no Youtubery.
Guitar Playin Woman by Bobby Bare Jr.? Nope.
I Bought A Flat Guitar Tutor, by 10cc? Guess not.
Finally! Miss William's Guitar by the Jayhawks!!
eff the F chord seems mandatory, almost.
I'll check with Mandos, to be sure.
