Car shopping, late lunch at Subway today (local sandwich chain). Three kids behind the counter were talking, and one mentioned hip-hop. When time came to pay,
Me "what kind of music do you guys listen to?"
Answer: "Hip hop".
Me: "That's it, no classic rock, stuff like that??
Answer: "nope"
Me: give me a piece of paper and a pen, I am gonna give you an assignment, stuff you gotta listen to at least once"
One kid digs it, and gets me the paper and pen!
I quickly wrote down a few things that came to mind on the spot, Joe Bonamassa, Alison Krauss(?), Neil Young (new stuff, "Le Noise"), Eric Clapton, and in bold, anything by Jimi Hendrix.
Kid took my stuff, with a very serious look on his face.
That was funny and cute, and it may be that, for once someone paid attention to them in the shop?
I am tempted to swing by next week and ask how they did..!
