So today, my girlfriend and i went to visit some friends of hers. All charming and everything… Then one of them took her guitar out, demonstrated her skills (i didn’t like what she played but she played loads of different notes and very fast) and then put her acoustic guitar in my hands and asked me to play a song.

So i took the guitar - a lovely Ovation guitar shall i add - and the oversized pick she was hading me out (it was one of those giant triangular ones). Wasn’t too sure what to play but thought i’d have a go at one of my old songs “i want some sweets”, which i haven’t played for one year or so but was written on an acoustic guitar so it was quite appropriate. I forgot a lot of the lyrics and forgot to play the chorus between verse 2 and verse 3 but i did rather well apart from that.

It’s weird how playing to a small group of people you know in a living room can be a lot scarier than playing to 100 strangers in a venue. But hey, i came through it and i even had some fun
