School of Rock

Did I mention that since September, I've been teaching guitar lessons part-time at the School of Rock franchise here in Vancouver, WA? No? Okay, then I'm mentioning it now.

It's been a great experience and a lot of fun. I've had the pleasure of working with students of all ages, including a young maestro whose skills are so advanced that in one of our lessons, I actually had him teach ME stuff.

Big thanks to school owner/general manager Kenneth Weiner (who is also the lead singer of Monty Vega & The Sittin' Shivas, whose song "Flash Bang Grenade" is the title theme for the Hold My Beer short film - Ken also makes a cameo appearance as a homebrewer in the film's climactic contest scene), music directors Dylan and Justin, school admin/coordinator Christina, and the rest of the staff and students for welcoming me and being awesome.

Rock on!
