Auditions Round 1

We had 2 over last night. The first guy is really good and likes our band and music. He plays a right–handed guitar left–handed, low E on the bottom. Mostly finger picks, a la Mark Knopfler. He easily played along with songs he's never played or even heard, such as the Kaiser Chief's version of Heard It Through the Grapevine we do. He can also play keys.

The second guy was quite a bit older and looked like he has mobility problems, like the way he was very slow and careful going down the stairs. That means he wouldn't be very helpful hauling equipment. He also didn't play very well and had a biting sound, which really reminded me of Jack. Don't want that again!

2 more coming tonight, then 2 or 3 on Saturday. This is weird.
