March Monday Music Madness, Part the First

Behold! Simon playing the my-girlfriend-is-annoying-and-juvenile-and-won't-leave-me-alone-even-though-I-don't-wanna-perform-for-the-internets blues (1:22). He's not wearing a bathrobe, but I am.

Please be kind and don't make him uncomfortable by, oh, complimenting him. He doesn't like it. You may, however, say nice things about his pretty pretty guitar or his hand-me-down shirt, which is older than I am.

[Serendipity: Today is March 6, 2006, which means it is exactly two years to the very day since I first heard Simon play the guitar. It was acoustic and it was in the low lamp glow after half of the household had gone to bed. Angel of Montgomery. Black Sheep. Qotkntt.]

I am (not) impressed! Simon is (not) very talented. I would (not) like to see more videos posted on your site.

*Remove words in parentheses for true meaning.

Sorry, Simon, you are good and it's time you heard it from the internets!

Wow! I'm really impressed. And how shiny is that guitar?! *swoon* Good catch Leah.

OMG. How sexy is THAT?

Wowza! A man who really knows how to use his hands. You're a lucky gal, Leah. But of course you already know that. :)

Even better--his main instrument is the harmonica. Oh yeah.

Yeah - thank god you warned me, so I will not be telling you how absolutely hot that is, how damn good he is, and how I am going to build a time machine to go back in time to the Under the Sea dance get his parents to kiss and hence make him a brother.

No, I won't mention any of that.

No way.

Wow, and I thought those days when you posted a million pictures weren't dial-up friendly...

Hey Angie...do you think you could make that two brothers? Thanks.

The harmonica!?

Oh lord. I can only imagine. ;)

The guitar playing was good, but I was more impressed by Simon's ventriloquism efforts that sounded just like Clapton!

Beautiful guitar! But my favorite part was when I noticed Jake and Elwood on the ceiling behind the curtain.

I was hoping someone would notice. Frank earns ten gold stars!
