Please, oh gods of the bro­ken string, I repent! Please spare me your wrath. I have sinned against you, I know. I’ve over­played, over­bent, overindulged, over­am­pli­fied, but please, cut me some slack. Do I really need to break a string EVERY SINGLE SHOW I PLAY? Haven’t I given enough?

And off we go!

Sorry for the lack of posts. I just fin­ished the busiest week of my life here. To start, I’ve been mov­ing into a new apart­ment, so that’s been crazy. I had about five days to do it, which isn’t too bad, but there’s been a mil­lion other things. I had my nor­mal teach­ing sched­ule, which […]
