Impromptu jam session in Kanazawa last night with a japanese guitarist and french pianist that are way better musicians than I ever will be, in the most wildly decorated rock bar I’ve ever been to. There are relatively few foreigners here in this ‘samurai’ town (which has Paul Smith, A.P.C., etc.) so being a musical white guy is an interesting novelty enough that my subpar musical skill qualifies me for invitations to play hotel gigs, which I guess is not a bad backup plan in the event my design/code career goes south.
