Why I want to meet tropicvibe

Oye tropicvibe!

I think it’s so cool that you reached out to me and asked me how the latin piano was coming. Truth is, I’ve been really busy with other things recently (mainly graduate school), but things are thankfully slowing down and I really need to get with the music again. Your message is totally the inspiration I was needing.

I have a pretty strong background in classical music (although my classical chops are not that great anymore), and a bit of improv, too. The latin stuff I’ve done up to now has been mostly what I can piece together by ear (which is not all that much), but I do have some salsa exercise books that I want to start using again. I have a lot to learn.

This is getting long, so I’ll just say that I would absolutely LOVE it if you wanted to send me some stuff you had composed, or just talk more about music sometime. Take care,

The real reason I want to meet funniculee

Hi Funnculee,
my name is David and I read about your latin piano playing and just wanted to find out how you were doing on it. I’m a piano player myself and have been doing it for the past 20 years with various bands, combos, trios, quartettes, quintettes, and sextettes. I’d like to know where you’re at in your playing, that is if you still are and send you some material every once in a while. For no reason other than the fact that I love music and I actually write and compose for other groups. I live in Brooklyn NY and I would just like to keep spreading the techniques of latin piano and then maybe you can pass them on to other players in the future. Take care and I hope you’re doing well and everything’s o.k. at home.

A friend in music,
David

Why I want to meet Trula

I am soooo impressed by her independent publishing efforts; I like her attitude and the way she comes across; and I want to build a strawbale house someday, too, so I’m very curious as to how this project of hers will turn out!

I want to meet Nikki because she cheered my goal of having a bookstore and said she would come by and see it when she’s in town. That is so sweet!

Why I want to meet funniculee

Ok… I finally figured it out (I am new to this). It was unclear to me how you said “why you wanted to meet someone”.

Now that the technology is all straightened out….

Thanks for the coment on my list, so of course I checked out your list and liked your style. Probably, we will never actually meet, but it is nice to know there are people moving in a similar direction. I like seeing your name in my “to meet” people so I have a bookmark to check on what the future holds for you.

Good luck on grad school and you really should get that fiddle fixed :)
