I was on the hunt for a little quiet jam room to hone my trade.<\/p>\n<p>1st, the theatre (that&#8217;s how us Canucks spell it) room, damn it&#8217;s locked! Then off to the large conference room on the 4th floor, ah, somebodies in there! With broken heart, Larivee guitar and lunch in hand, I headed off to the old smoking area outside.<\/p>\n<p>PERFECT, nobody there and it was nice and sheltered from the mid afternoon sun, with a little breeze to help unwind. I unlock the unbridled enthusiasm, and guitar out of my case and start jamming! This went on for awhile until I had to return back to work. At this point I said to myself, &#8220;bring it on!&#8221;.<\/p><!--CusAds-->\n<p>My great boss Liz in the recovery room (oh lets not forget Jennifer), whom I am sure is reading this now, let me go a bit early that day for my inaugural stumble, I mean graceful leap onto the national radio scene!<\/p>\n<p>I got home, put my tools of battle (or as Arlo Guthrie put it &#8220;instruments of destruction&#8221; from Alice&#8217;s Restaurant) in the car and off I went ready to conquer the world!<\/p>\n<p>Parked the car, took my tools out of the trunk and headed off to the promised land! Got in front of the street level booth with heart and adrenalin just a racing and then &#8230; he swiveled around&#8230; slowly!<\/p>\n<p>The look on his face was truly as sight to see. With raised eyebrows, he mouthed the words &#8221; I don&#8217;t have any tickets left&#8221;.<\/p>\n<!--CusAds--><p>Keep on Jammin&#8217; (or in this case crying!!!)<\/p>\n<div class=\"c354d1e329b235f1862b41000f5a4d18\" data-index=\"9\" style=\"float: none; margin:10px 0 10px 0; text-align:center;\">\n<br\/>\r\n<div align=\"center\">\r\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\"><!--\r\ngoogle_ad_client = \"pub-3375789278566919\";\r\n\/* Guitar_inpost_300x250 *\/\r\ngoogle_ad_slot = \"3631424768\";\r\ngoogle_ad_width = 300;\r\ngoogle_ad_height = 250;\r\n\/\/-->\r\n<\/script>\r\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\"\r\nsrc=\"http:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/show_ads.js\">\r\n<\/script>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<br\/>\r\n<?php if ( is_search() || is_single() || is_page() || is_paged() || is_category() || is_archive() ) { ?>\r\n<div align=\"center\">\r\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\"><!--\r\nch_client = \"dragonden\";\r\nch_type = \"mpu\";\r\nch_width = 468;\r\nch_height = 120;\r\nch_color_bg = \"FFFFFF\";\r\nch_color_title = \"7dc246\";\r\nch_color_text = \"333333\";\r\nch_non_contextual = 4;\r\nch_vertical =\"premium\";\r\nch_sid = \"guitarlicks_betweenposts2\";\r\nvar ch_queries = new Array( );\r\nvar ch_selected=Math.floor((Math.random()*ch_queries.length));\r\nif ( ch_selected < ch_queries.length ) {\r\nch_query = ch_queries[ch_selected];\r\n}\r\n\/\/--><\/script>\r\n<script  src=\"http:\/\/scripts.chitika.net\/eminimalls\/amm.js\" type=\"text\/javascript\">\r\n<\/script>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<?php } ?>\r\n<br\/>\n<\/div>\n\n<div style=\"font-size: 0px; height: 0px; line-height: 0px; margin: 0; padding: 0; clear: both;\"><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ok good readership, it&#8217;s time for part II of Chris&#8217;s excellent adventure!
