Post A Fun Little Pickup Gig
I was at conference for programmers this weekend. The speakers include a very fun former Apple employee who writes humorous songs that only computer programmers could love. He's like the Weird Al of the programming world. Here's his album on iTunes. This release made it to #5 on the BillBoard humor chart!

When he speaks at a conference he performs and whoever shows up with an instrument becomes part of his backup band. I played mostly a baseline as there were three guitars. Here we are:

This was really fun and things like this was a big reason I started playing Stick. It's so versatile I can blend in with many styles and roles.
