Here's a photo of me at Rutgers-Camden, circa 1989, taken by Dan Long.



For the record: I don't think I am doing air guitar. I am doing air slap bass. So that means something serendipitous had happened as this picture was taking, for an unaccompanied slap bass served as the musical cue for such events. Maybe someone just went on a beer run, or exams were over, or someone had a bag of weed. That's how simple my life was 20 years ago.
