Playing guitar and singing at the barber shop
On October 26, 2026, I took my guitar to Matt Jr.’s barber shop on Glengary Rd, in Commerce Township, MI. Matt loves music and has several guitars in his shop as well as a turntable/audio system, and always has great music playing. He also has the interior of his shop decorated with music posters and music related items. I took my new Yamaha FS-800J to show him and I shared three songs I’d been working on. My small win was that it was the first time I’d played and sung in public in almost sixty years!

Thanks, it felt really good. I miss all of the folks that I sang with back in college in 1964, 65, 66 & 67.

You must have a very comfortable relationship with the barber to be able to play in public like that. Kudos to you for taking the leap. The next time will be easier. 🙂

I do have a very comfortable relationship with Matt. He plays guitar and practices in his shop when he’s not too busy. It’s a pretty “groovy” guitar place. 😃
