Schooled

So, I'm sitting on the couch with my guitar last night. I'm watching VH1 Classic (my favorite) and this video of Stevie Ray Vaughan comes on; it's the tremendous live version of Texas Flood from the Blues Before Sunrise CD. As soon as it starts I stop playing and watch with dropped jaw. It's the kind of performance that makes me feel like I don't even deserve to own a guitar: really incredible, amazing, superhuman talent. And halfway through the song, he swings the guitar behind his back and finishes the song without looking.

I spend the next half hour trying to get my stupid guitar in-tune.
