Damn, this weekend has been busy... Just went to see two of my favorite bands, not at the same time, mind you, but it was pretty awesome. As always, Electric Guitars were truly inspiring (Electric Guitars is a band featuring two great Danish guitarists, Soren Andersen and Mika Vandborg), both during their show and afterwards when I went out to get my copy of their newest album, which I had just bought before the show, signed. Got a nice little 30 minutes long chat with them, and got a free signed poster to hang up specifically in my guitar-room. Saturday, I pretty much just practiced all the time, and tonight, I got to see Queen perform in Denmark for the first time since Freddie Mercury's untimely death, and damn... They kicked ass. I'm not sure who Adam Lambert is, but he sang the songs perfectly, so I'm happy. Great to finally get to see my first guitar-god, Brian May, in real life.

And, I already have plans for May. I'm gonna continue my little attempt to become friends with Soren and Mika, since they'll be playing nearby in three months. They're starting to recognize me by now, so I'm definitely making progress! Maybe next time, I should ask how much they charge for private guitar lessons over Skype? They're both experienced guitar teachers after all, and they're the only ones I know who can inspire me to improve every single time I see them.

For now, I need some sleep. Tomorrow, I'll probably end up practicing guitar all day... Again...
