🎄 In 2023, I thought a lot about being a rockstar
I started playing guitar when I was a little boy. Our family always had one propped up in the corner of the living room and although she never played it for me, I would occasionally hear my mum strum away gently from another room.
Over the years I thumbed through the “Learn to play classic folk songs” and “Guitar for beginners” kind of textbooks. I tried, but the yellow faded pages never really spoke to me. I am not a good student, school didn’t excite me and I have almost zero enthusiasm for being “taught”. Greensleeves wasn’t it. I wanted Pearl Jam, Black Sabbath, Slayer.
But when Christmas rolled around and Santa Claus left me a sunburst Squire Stratocaster and practice amp under the tree, everything changed. I was hooked.
