about

I’ve worked in upscale hospitality for many years. During this time my relationship with the super-wealthy has become more and more complicated. It has warped my sense of where the line is when it comes to excess. It is hard for me to remember how much less I have, and how lucky I am compared to most people.

I’m about 6’2 and not a skinny guy. I cannot afford to fly much, certainly not first class. But if I had the money, I don’t think I could resist. If they called it “luxury” or “deluxe” seating I would be a lot more comfortable. It’s not just semantics. I know they are not all snobs, but the airlines are encouraging them to be when they get to cut in line, and be called “first class.”

Bastards.

On this recording I play a bass that my friend John Brauer has left at my apartment for several years. He bought it when he was studying in China for a semester for about 30 bucks. I also play some crystal wine glasses and fine China that I “borrowed” from my current employer. I think the glasses would retail for $40-90 each. Silly.
