Ed and Janet's Party

This post has no picture of Ed or his girlfriend Janet from Saturday. I had to go back back back in the vaults and drudge up this photo from New Years to create an accurate representation.

I met Ed through a mutual friend not long after I moved to Denver. I found out Ed played trumpet and was in a band in college and he knew I played guitar. The first party I went to at Ed's house I met all of the people who would remain my good friends over the past 10 years, including Craig. Craig was a drummer and that night he and Ed asked me if I wanted to be in a band with them. My response was that I had always wanted to be in an all girl band (and they would have to wear skirts and act dirty) and I wanted the band's name to be Brazen Hussy. They did not hesitate when they said NO WAY. I said ok, when do we start practicing? Hence the inception of 6 years of Ed Fingers.

Another person at the above mentioned party was Jon, pictured here with Dave prominently displaying some T&A martini cups that had once belonged to Ed's mom. Jon has agreed to play at our wedding with his band Cocktail Revolution. We are very excited about this. Jon is not only an amazing saxaphone player, but he is also the kind of musician where you say, I would really like to hear [insert obscure song from 1978 here] and he will pick up his sax and start playing it. Yeah, I know, cool.

I'll stop getting all nostalgic and come back to the present with, it was really good to hang out at Ed's new pad on Saturday night.
