130- Guitar Shows (Owen)
from Tweed Couch Guitar Therapy Session Hosted by Dr. Tietjen
I am fortunate enough to live in an area that not only has amazing guitar shops, but 1-2 times a year guitar shops from around the nation will come to buy, sell, trade, and showcase musical gear all under 1 roof. Occasionally you’ll see a celebrity. Get a chance to listen to some live music. And possibly touch a true holy grail piece. I grew up going to these shows and now I get to take my own children. Of course this may sound like heaven but I assure you it has its downfalls. High prices, loud rooms, tiny isles, and sensory overload can leave you drained and exhausted after just an hour. But… What exactly is a guitar show? Does it cost anything to attend? How is it different from going to a guitar shop? Can you play the instruments? What kind of people do you find there? Is there anything worth buying? How many guitar shops make it? Do the vendors even have to be about guitar gear? What would you buy if you had the money? Do they have special deals? And Les Paul’s… ya… they weren't around in 1886. Well we will discuss this, and more on this group therapy session with Owen my 17 year old cork sniffer, on the Tweed Couch.
