| I have a funny story about this. I was living in LA, and it was summertime. It was hot. I was working long hours and we were cramming for a deadline. I got so busy I forgot to pay my bills, including my electricity. I had just hooked up with a sexy japanese chick. I mean it was one of those long drawn out sweaty sessions that lasted well into the next day, and I had invited her to come over to my house for round two. We made plans to meet at 8, or so I thought. When I got home, the electricity had been turned off. So I figured, what the hell. My cell phone was out of battery (my car charger tanked a long time ago), and my phone was a cordless deal that was dependent upon a base station that plugged in. So I couldn't call the electric company until the next day.
So somewhere in the process of getting undressed to take a shower, I happened to pick up my acoustic bass. Being the ADD monkey that I am, I began to play it. I was teaching myself how to play the Wish You Were Here album, so of course, I began trying to play it from memory. There was a specific part that I couldn't remember, so I grabbed one of those hiking flashlights that you wear around your head, and used it to read the tablature, while I worked out that one section. Suddenly, I look up and the sexy Japanese chick is standing in my living room. There I was, in my underwear, in the dark, with a hiking flashlight on my head, playing my bass guitar. She was an hour early. Funny enough, it was that exact moment that this sexy Japanese chick realized that I was going to be the guy she was going to marry. She said it was the funniest thing she had ever seen in her life. 10 years later we're still together with a 5 year old kid. |
