Hey
hey Jeff thanks for coming yeah really
happy to be here so Jeff is my neighbor
who lives downstairs and he’s also a
professional musician is that how you
would say it yeah so today he’s gonna
talk to us about his skills his job his
passion mmm and he tell us a little bit
about the guitar I know when did you
start to play I started when I was 12
um and I actually I had before that my
passion was skateboarding and I had
broken my left arm skateboard it was my
right arm I broke my right arm and my
cell my arm was in a cast like this
perfect like for like you know a while I
guess it was a few months uh-huh and I
had to like learn to write with my left
hand it was really that’s a whole other
story but but while I had my arm in the
cast first of all was definitely making
me reconsider my passion for
skateboarding was actually this like I
dislocated my left elbow then I broke
both bones in my right forearm and so
like here I was 12 years old like maybe
I don’t want to keep breaking bones and
so there was that but then also like it
is kind of funny that my arm was stuck
in this position but I also like I don’t
know I saw a few movies that like one
was this movie called crossroads that
started Ralph Macchio you know when he
played this this white kid who wanted to
get blues man and like there was great
guitar blues throughout this throughout
the show throughout the movie and when I
saw that I think that really inspired me
and I don’t know just and I actually I
went to a party and there was this kid
this busy boy who didn’t even play the
guitar that well but he was playing the
guitar and all the girls at the party
were like oh my god
I’m I am I might want to learn how to do
that because girls don’t talk to me so a
good passion yeah so I started playing
when I was 12 and I started just taking
a group guitar class at my school my
parents got me a terrible guitar because
they didn’t think I was gonna stick with
it so they got me like this yeah jalopy
of a guitar and this guitar this this
actual guitar I bought when I was 14
Wow with money I earned from mowing
lawns and raking leaves yeah I got this
one nice nice that’s really precious to
you then you had her a long time and you
got it with your I money yeah I bought I
bought it with my own money that that I
earned from from neighborhood
neighborhood parents and I mowed their
Lots and right then oh that’s 450 books
whoa Wow and I bought this when I was 14
Wow um and uh I’ve been you know I’ve
been pretty passionate about it ever
since
sounds like it’s once you saw the girls
gathered around the guitar there was no
looking back ya know when I had a band
in eighth grade
and when we played our first show uh
give us imagine it was really cool it
was actually at a bar they had like a
teen night at this really cool bar um
you know where local bands really wanted
to play I was like a teen night so and
we had a demo tape and they they hired
us to do it and so we got to play in
front of like hundreds of you know
screaming kids and they and and really
like before that I really was and still
in like kind of a nerd and like I just I
was the class clown and you know I
didn’t I really did not get much female
attention except like oh my god Jeffrey
would you stop trying to be funny
oh no and put on cool jeans at but after
this concert after this concert we went
to like the place where teens hung out
which was this Lagoon in New Orleans
like you know the parking lot would
stand I was like oh man I hope
get beat up this time we get out of the
car and we get thronged by like the cool
mean guys you know like the guys who did
drugs when they were 14 I’m like and all
the hot girls
we’re just surrounding it’s like hi hi
can we be your friends what a change
I am definitely sticking with this
guitar Wow well especially as a 14 year
old that’s really important you be like
yeah we like my girls 15 by that point
actually but yeah yeah so sure but then
it was the added bonus that um first of
all it’s the first thing that I was ever
