Is it a gig or a job you happen to use the guitar.

Monday, I need to do sit with my old math teacher from high school. He is having outpatient surgery so when done just needs someone around to monitor and be safe. He is not a widow but wife in the nursing home. He asks me if I might do this glad to give me a something for doing this, and he actually can afford this has done well owns a farm. Nice place out on the prairie.

I told him no problem maybe I can bring my guitar and play a few tunes and keep the chops and repertoire current. He said yes that would be great keep him focused and just listen to tunes might even help recovery.

I don't know if it classifies as gig but let me tell you it looks much better than most I get. No traffic to fight, no amp or sound system, nothing but tunes I want to play, and I can take whatever guitar I want safe environment.

More a gift than a gig...

This sounds like one you do as a "Good Turn". The feeling you'll get and the lasting memory of being there for someone in need is worth more than money.

A gig is an act of expression. This is an act of love.
You're doing something that we all aspire to find, something that is all too easily lost along the way: playing to the soul.
Applause is a quiet smile.
