Early to rise...

In order to make it to Bass Player Live on time, I got up at 7am. Strangely, I was awake before the hotel staff was. Homestead Inn near the Meadowlands -- $79/night, no frills.

When I got to Manhattan, the hotel informed me that they would park my car for a mere $37.50. I opted to park down the street for $15.00. I lived in NYC, I don't know if I would own a car.

Initially, I left my Fodera in my car (I didn't want to be carrying a hard shell case around with me all day), but then my paranoia started to get to me. What if someone breaks into my car? If someone stole my laptop, or my CD player, I'd be pissed, but no big deal. If someone stole my Fodera, I'd have to use a rusty butter knife on them to get my vengence.

While I was talking with a few people, I ran into Vinnie Fodera. He was gracious enough to offer to keep my guitar at his booth during the day. Another problems solved.
