I loughed when i saw the first pic, it was taken right as in the midlle of playing i asked the sound guy, "Please sir can i have some more ? " the problem was that my strings were really old, I am loughing mostly at the expression on my face, never realised i look like such a sulk when i ask for something lol I mostly get anything when i make those eyes, except sex, women have grown immune to it.
Also, i wish they let me undo on more button on my shirt ...

Cool pics guys. I knew Florian accompanied dancers, but I didn't know you did as well John. That's really cool. How long have you been accompanying dancers John?
About three years now. For me a long learning process that took/takes a lot of patience. Especially since I'd played solo for so long without worrying about compás beforehand I had to concentrate on getting mistakes out and reinterpreting things. I couldn't play any pieces and was doing nothing but strumming chords for over a year.
It's really paid off and slowly but surely I'm getting to where I want to be...

Pic has gone because it was with the group I dance with and I realised I hadn't asked their permission to post it. We're rehearsing tonight though, so maybe I'll post something later.
Ailsa lol !! i never ask anyone for permission you are so considerate, dont worry too much, dancers dont exactly hate the idea of beeing seen from what i remember
Ive just been learning to laugh at my self more recently. Instead of being so serious about everything, I tend to be way to sensitive and defensive and I'm just working on it.
You got nice hair to Henrik.

there is a difference between not taking yourself too seriously and putting yourself down though man. Gabe, i think you should give yourself more credit than the new quote you have for your avatar. Just a thought
