Django In June 2026

I'm still recovering. It was cool seeing everyone, as usual. Anyone got any good videos? I have some great stuff but negotiating the rights to share it...

Withdrawal symptoms... It takes about a week to become a functional person again.

Buco

Imagine this:

in the very small room, Sam Farthing and Sami Arefin are demoing Paul's new built guitars. Only a few people are in there. That in itself is a treat but it gets better. A few songs later Fapy pokes his head through the door in curiosity. I was standing right there, next to the door. I gently place my hand on his shoulder and say, please come in Don Fapy, come in please. He hesitates for a few seconds but steps in. He smiles, you could hardly catch him without a smile on his face throughout the whole week. It doesn't take a lot of arm twisting to get him to play once the guitar is in a vicinity. Sami relinquishes the guitar he was playing, Sam picks it up and Fapy sits down with a guitar Sam was playing previously. What follows is a two hours of music bliss, magic in every note. Tomas (Drgon) then Dennis then Zack switch duties on bass. There's been very few times in my life when music made me feel float like that.

My legacy for the evening was that I had a six pack with me at the moment. After a few songs, Fapy goes: if only I had a beer right now. I yank one out and send it via Paul and two seconds later Fapy is holding a beer and laughing out loud.

What a night...
