Good Friday Jamming Session

My guitarist Jason texted me to remind me of an upcoming jamming session we have set weeks ago while I was still recuperating from my Mount Kinabalu climb. Though I had a mild sore thoat on the day itself, I was eager for our jamming session.

Cynthia, our bassist could not make it because she was feeling sick. She preferred to rest in bed instead. Jason brought along his “Golden Lady” – one of his guitars that is famous for her soothing tone – and according to Cynthia, all our songs were like lullaby to her. All along I thought our over-the-top volume must have given her hell. Pfftt.

Jason’s girlfriend Selrol has determined to document our band’s progress by photographing each of our session. I passed my brand new Fujifilm camera to her and I bet she had fun with it. All the picture above were taken by her and the captions are as follows (from left to right, top to bottom).

(1) I don’t remember why I smile. To my best knowledge my songs are pretty dark. (2) Selrol tried to play Jason’s guitar. Ouch! Those steel strings! (3) Jason in his melancholy mood. (4) Jason was trying out the new song “Kids From The Park” with a set of new chords (he used capo and played at a different chord in order to create a different feel in harmonizing with my guitar). (5) The view from outside my window. (6) I was trying out the new song with Jason. (7) Identify the chord! (8) Little did I realize that while I memorized one of the song, I changed some of the chords. Jason and I had quite an interesting time trying to map out the changes. (9) Jason’s cool guitar effect.
