... a few months ago, while out for an evening stroll, alison and i chanced upon simon kiser playing his guitar on the street corner beneath the window of my apartment ... we stopped and talked, learning that while sitting at home he'd suddenly developed an overwhelming urge to "get out" ... to stand along the side of a busy public way and expose one's heart to the world, in addition to his talent we both admired his courage ...
... a week or so ago simon dropped a note, asking if i could help him with some publicity photos for his first paying gig ... of course, being a struggling young musician he couldn't afford my outrageously exorbitant fees, but that was no problem since i'm also one to barter a lunch and coffee for whatever skill i possess with a camera and lens ...
... was great fun taking these pictures, and, of course, i always enjoy lunch a little more when i don't have to pay for it ... simon will be playing at the "point afta" in winslow on january 26th, i recommend going to listen not just because he's really good, but so that someday you will be able to brag, "i was lucky to get to enjoy his very first gig" ...
