Remembering SRV

Wow – twenty years ago there was a terrible helicopter crash in Wisconsin and Stevie Ray Vaughan was killed. I was just a little kids, but I remember my mom and dad talking about it, in hushed tones. They were really upset about it.

Now that I know more about music and great guitar players, I can understand the impact of his death. Stevie Ray was a great guitarist and his story is intriguing. He had beaten his addiction to drugs and was on an upswing in his career and personal life and then got killed in a freak accident. What a terrible shame.

Meeting up with Vicki

One of my girlfriends from back in college is meeting me for lunch today. I can’t wait to see Vicki again. It’s been too long!

She lives in Alabama but has to be in Nashville for a business convention this week. Today is the only day she can blow off some of the meetings during the convention to get together. So I’m heading downtown to have lunch at the Hard Rock with her. Gonna be a lot of fun downtown today!
