I went to an opening at the met this week. the show is on Italian immigrant guitar makers, like D'Addario. who came over to NY and influenced the evolution of guitars. It was really cool to see all the old tools they used and templates. Then there was a nice reception in the greek sculpture wing, open bar, horderves, and the mellow tunes of a slow jazz bad. The odd part was when I got a bit tipsy and the statues seemed as if they were eerily looking at me like a seen from devils advocate. kind of strange. But it was a really nice night.
