For those of you who read my personal blog, you’ll know that I cut my finger up pretty badly on Wednesday night. For those of you who don’t read my personal blog, well, I cut my finger up pretty badly on Wednesday night. I’m just so thankful that I’ll eventually heal with no permanent damage. The first thing that went through my head after it happened (well, after the words “oh” and “crap”) was complete and utter terror at the idea of not being able to play guitar.
No worries, I’ll be playing the guitar (badly) in no time. And! Now I’ll have an excuse for why I’m so terrible!
Of course, this leaves me with a show on the 30th that I may or may not be able to play for. According to my old friend Murphy and his stupid Law, there is a good chance that my finger won’t heal up in time.
Django Reinhardt was able to play brilliantly with the use of only eight fingers. I, however, am no Django Reinhardt. And he had the luxury of using his index finger. I don’t.
I’ve never cancelled a gig in my life and I don’t intend to start now. Does anyone know of a good rhythm guitarist who would be available on the 30th? My songs are ridiculously easy to play. I’d buy them a drink and everything.
