Strummin' with his fingers!

This month was here and now almost gone!! Love the back to school memories and watching them being replayed through your children's eyes! 6th grade, baseball, band, and .......


Monday, Matt FINALLY had is first guitar lesson with Mr. Koska. He has been so patient (2 years). He wrote down songs and artists he's interested in learning to play. Musically, he's a natural and learns quickly. He plays clarinet as well.

Mr. Koska and I worked together, and fell deeply, madly, and affectionately in friendship with each other. He is an amazing and talented man with a musical passion. In fact, he refers to me as his DIVA and I'm never to allow anyone to play guitar behind me ...EVER! I received an email from him after sending him this picture of the two of them in the "Koska studio"


He really, really seems to have the "Passion" for this guitar thing. If I can keep him on track and interested in playing...he's gonna be a MONSTER on guitar by the time he hits high school.

However, if he eventually wants to drop out of school and join Pearl Jam on the road...it will not be my fault...well, actually it will be partially my fault..and I'm OK with that guilt!

Barb - I think it's great Matt likes music so much. And the comments by his teacher were hysterical! I still have yet to go to a Pearl Jam concert (one of the things I've always wanted to do). Maybe I'll get to see him up on stage with them :-)
