My landlord, Daniel, is a guitar teacher and the former president of the South Bay Guitar Society. As I was pulling into my parking space this evening, he invited me to come to their Open Mic night at Espresso Garden & Cafe. While most of the guitar players who went up were amateurs, there was an amazing guitar player who played tonight named Rico Stover.
I've already linked to Espresso Garden, but I wanted to point out one thing. Take a look at the picture of the cafe on their website. Doesn't that look like a nice place to relax, drink coffee and study? Well, guess what? That isn't a photograph of the cafe. It's a mural done by John Pugh. At 1:1 scale, it's incredibly realistic and just melts into cafe. You must visit and see the real thing -- it's quite extraordinary.
I had an amazing night of art and music tonight. Life is good, and life goes on.
