Well, we got to Nashville safely. A big thank you goes out to Edwina Thurman for letting us use her car. If we weren't driving it, we would have never gotten everything down here. We need to wash it on the way back though, the salt has really made it a dirty, little suv.
We got down here, got settled into the hotel room, headed out to the Gibson store, drooled over a bunch of guitars we couldn't afford, ate cajun food, loaded our stuff into the studio, then hung out at B.B. King's Blues Club. That was a good time. We got to see a fantastic band headed up by Stacy Mitchhart. That brotha can play! At one point in the show, he headed out into the crowd and played. This is where the story could've been epic. Instead, it's more of a "what could have been".
As Stacy made his way into the crowd to play, he came by our table to play, and noticed Aaron looking at his hands while he was playing. He simply looked at Aaron and said, "Do you want to play?" As I'm sure you all expected........he said YES!!!!! Um......wait......no? He said NO???? That's right people. Aaron said no. Of course, we took this opportunity to make sure that he didn't get to forget his "frozen" moment. Aaron could've stepped into the shoes of some of the greats who have played on that stage, but it's only a memory of a possibility that was never realized.
Outside of that, we are looking forward to a couple of days of recording with one of Nashville's finest. We'll keep everyone posted on what is going on, and we'll be posting video blogs on youtube as well. Until tomorrow, here are a couple of pics from BB Kings.
