I'm friends with Frank Coluccio's daughter. Okay, so that won't impress anyone who isn't familiar with construction companies around Seattle.

Carla Leurs (a hot violin prodigy) briefly attended my school before leaving for a career touring the workd as a world class violinist.

Paul Geremia dug my playing when he heard me do Sporting Life Blues.

I've also met a number of classical guitarists as they come through town. Many of them know my teacher.
