January 13, 2009:

Your recording class wants to record Jumping Jack Flash. That'll be good, you can show off your open-G licks. But, you forgot to bring your guitar and amp. Are there any here? Yes, in the corner beneath dark tables there are some old-looking Fender and Supro amps. Who do they belong do? Doesn't matter, you can borrow one and put it back at the end of the day. You choose a Supro accordion amp, while students with mandolins on their backs wander through, joking. What about a guitar? There are none here. Maybe you can borrow one from a nearby music store. Hello? The sales people are in the back room. The selection looks small anyway; you're not hopeful.
