Thoughts At An Undisclosed Rate
Family Dollar
So in five hours I start my job as the Assistant Manager of a Family Dollar. I’m really excited, y’all. Apparently in three months I have the option, since they’ve opened up so many stores recently, to be the General Manager of my own store. That’s insane, I’d be 19 years old and the general manager of a store. I think that’s a little scary. I mean, I’m not trying to brag, but when I truly think to myself ‘gosh, these are all the things I’ve done with my life (first full time job, buy a car, get my own apartment, etc.) after just a year out of high school’, I get really excited with what I’m gonna accomplish in the years to come. Thank you guys a lot for following me on tumblr.com. Believe in yourselves!

So last night me and Philip Charos played our gig at a joint down town. We were doing alright. But who was in the crowd? None other than Mr. John Lamb. For those of you who aren’t familiar, he was the bassist for Duke Ellington. We finished our second set and he called us over to sit down with him. He talks about life a little bit and asks us why we play jazz. Then he finishes his wine and actually asks to play with us. Our jaws were dropped. We finally decided on Autumn Leaves. I chord comped the head and took turns with Phillipos on the melody, playing it over and over again until John started staring at us. We were too afraid to take a solo. It was awesome. I can’t believe that I can actually say that I played “So What” with John Lamb. What an incredible night, and so early in my career too. Oh, and we got paid immensely. So much yes last night.

I made this track for all you lonesome lovers out there tonight
Alright guys, so seriously give me your opinion because I need your advice; is this a good shirt for my date tomorrow? Like I want casual, young-adulty, not too fancy look. I’ll wear it with black jeans and moccasins. Tell me true, am I looking good for tomorrow night?
My cousin and I kick so much ass
I don’t have a video to post tonight, but since I have a lot more followers now, I thought I’d bring back this gem
Another video of me since the last one was well-received.
I attempt to play fiddle after two years of forgetting that I ever played it
