I'm was tired and overworked, but on my way home
from the grocery store, I happened to hear some live
music, I walked over to the local grill and there in
my own neighborhood -- Andy Walo and Group. I love
good live music. I've seen some fine acts lately,
even here in the Pasadena area. But, this guy, this
guy wasn't interested in providing me high quality
live rock/blues. This guy, was connect to the music
Gods. Heck, he musta takin' his quarter inch phone
jack and plugged that thing right into the universal
flow of music. He wasn't damn good, he was special. I
felt privileged to witness him enjoying the heck out
his guitar and the night. Backed by a solid bass
player and a drummer who slung his head backwards,
rolled his eyes up so that only the whites shown as
he beat up those skins with heart and soul. Very
appropriately, he was tuned in or out, or whatever.
Both of those guys were off in space and we were
witnessing them like lightening or Bigfoot or or ...
somethin' worth not missin'.
Thank you, Andy for that kind of inspiration, for
reminding me to make my life like you make music.
