Jan. 24th, 2010 11:07 pmOh. Oh. I was just reading back through my New Zealand posts when I came across a mention of George, the awesomesauce guitar player from my hostel in Nelson. One of the songs he wrote while I was there was on Youtube a while back, so I Youtubed him again to see if he'd posted anything new. And!
I saw him start writing this song. He had a stiff shoulder and one of the Japanese girls gave him a massage so he started writing her a song as a thank you. He'd finished the chorus and I sang Japanese la-dee... the whole next day while I did a six hour walk through a national park. Oh man. Oh George. Oh backpacking. I sat in the same chair he's sitting in; that's my hostel in Nelson.
I want to go back to New Zealand now. And I want George just to get on with being amazing enough to release records. Seriously, I put my little remaining money on him being famous one day and rightly so. He's ridiculously talented.
