went to a party, it was a silly pseudo-frat boy romp, cool guys, but nothing like a lazerbeams party. bunch of guys trying to score hot-poon with a keg of busch, silly. anyway, in the heat of the party, the host, my good friend since 2001, paul, decides to bust out his new guitar and show it to me.
he hasn't been playing for long, and thinks that i am some kind of 6-string guru. granted, i have been playing for awhile, but i think i am far from the "guru" status. anyway, he convinces me to play. i crank up his little piece of shit amp and start playing. i'm not really at the top of my guitar playing game, you must understand.
anywho, a couple of minutes go by, i wrap up my song (paganini's 5th [distorted to all hell, of course]) and look up.
the room is packed and everyone seems awestruck. it was so fucking weird. some kid yelled "play some AC/DC!" and i quickly put the guitar away.
but seriously, how weird is that? i'm definitely not the best guitar player, but all the drunk kids there thought i was some sort of shred master. it was so bizzare.
i guess you had to be there.
