jwhitcomb3 Posted January 9, 2009 Share Posted January 9, 2009 Last night I finally managed to catch Brian playing solo acoustic at the Green Martini in Concord NH. He was great! Cool selection of songs, well played and sung. And all this from a bass player!He'll be back as the main attraction next Friday (1/16). Anyone near Concord should make the trip. Good stuff!-Jonathan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jwhitcomb3 Posted January 9, 2009 Author Share Posted January 9, 2009 At what point were tables flipped over after the discussion turned to politics?Too busy talkin' guitars, school, jobs, checking out the local talent and withstanding the WORST COMEDIAN IN THE WORLD.-Jonathan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thundernotes Posted January 9, 2009 Share Posted January 9, 2009 We were in Concord, NH. I know when to just shut up and play the guitar! Comedian sucked big time. Goes to show you what happens when you're 6'-9" and can't play basketball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmatthes Posted January 9, 2009 Share Posted January 9, 2009 At what point were tables flipped over after the discussion turned to politics? I'm thinking that you two would make a great acoustic duo. John - can you learn to play left-handed? That would be perfect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm thinking that you two would make a great acoustic duo. John - can you learn to play left-handed? That would be perfect. Nah...I suck enough right handed. But it would be a gas to work up some songs with Brian, but for the impending semester. FWIW, I've never found politics to be an impediment to music...or friendship. -Jonathan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
serial Posted January 9, 2009 Share Posted January 9, 2009 FWIW, I've never found politics to be an impediment to music...or friendship.Agreed. While I don't know how Carville/Matalin do it (although I'd guess a lot of that is for show anyway), but I respect friends' views. If their views offended me personally, I shouldn't be friends with them anyway.Politics hasn't gotten in the way of any friendships, but peoples' actions (be it racist, radically homophobic to the point of violent, etc) have. While they might argue that those are their political views, I see it otherwise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thundernotes Posted January 9, 2009 Share Posted January 9, 2009 Frankly, when we're chillin' out having a beer, the subject of politics rarely comes up. When it does, it's usually joking around. As guitarists, technologists, and fathers, we have far more things in common. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jwhitcomb3 Posted January 17, 2009 Author Share Posted January 17, 2009 Saw Brian perform again last night and realized that last week was just a teaser. When he's got his own rig it's a knockout!I see lots of people with high tech rigs, but Brian's is innovative and does just what it needs to enhance his performance without overwhelming it. He had a bunch going on while he was playing and he made it look easy. Very impressive, and a good time!Only problem is now I've got serious GAS for an Eclipse 12...-Jonathan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
