Playing the Mile

Found a nice warm sunbeam out on the street corner Sunday morning and sunk into it with my violin like bum in a warm tub.


In my head, I'm invisible.
In reality I'm a clay covered man taking a break from a life in the studio by playing violin on street corners.
Local photographer, Christopher Staggs posted this photo on FaceBook. What a HOOT! Good thing you got my good side...
So any locals that see this crazy violin guy out there, stop, introduce yourself, and say "hello".
Thanks Christopher!

    Jim, someday I'd like to share a few beers with you and then maybe I'd play. I'm still shy.

  6. I'm working through Bourree by Bach.

    Thanks for the nice words, it's always a bit weird to see the mug on the screen. "Who's that old guy anyway?"
