milod Posted December 19, 2012 Share Posted December 19, 2012 I'd actually argue that pickin' in rock and country bands cut into my "dating" life. But then, I tend to be pretty cynical about groupies and - I was the same way when I was 18, a long, long time ago. OTOH, I also tended to like the idea of a GF playing as part of the band and/or duo... m Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel you. Years later, I became the same way, but that's years later. In fact, it kinda makes me a little sick when I see that it's really only the guitar playing they are interested in. Or rather, do I really want to spend time with someone that likes me because I play? But, give a chick a guitar, and I have to hold myself back. It does something to me.

onewilyfool Posted December 19, 2012 Author Share Posted December 19, 2012 Actually, I find that when a girl flirts or smiles at me when I'm playing at the coffee house....I tend to get a little befuddled, and look away....lol...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And what we used to do all night now takes us all night to do! Where does that saying come from? My uncle has this particular favorite lyric from a Northern Cal band that goes, "It's an all night effort to do the things I used to do all night". Regarding the other, it's still all good. Even if you don't get some, at least you didn't waste money on dinner because you know you gonna see her again. Besides, like I always say, it's a fine line between hugging and pinning her down.

Those sayings have been around since Hector was a pup. And I especially like your last line..... I may adopt it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm here to learn. Hipness is part of being a guitar player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanvillRob Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 Ok...who is Hector? I'm here to learn. Hipness is part of being a guitar player. It's an old saying.... refers to the Hector of Greek Mythology, (who was killed by Achilles). If I recall correctly, the myth is that Hector's mother, (Queen something or other), was turned into a dog for some reason....making Hector the first S.O.B....hence the 'pup' reference. I've also heard it refers to the Dog Star, (Sirius), but not sure how. It's a saying my dad always used....he'd tell me "I haven't seen that since Hector was a pup"...or whatever.... so it's a saying that comes naturally to me.
