Joel Guzman, larger than life

I’ve written before about how the Patient Spouse and I are concert tourists, since many of the musicians we like don’t make it to Lubbock. So, here we were in Dallas to catch Paul Simon on his current Homeward Bound tour.

We happy that Joel Guzman was in the band (he’s played here in Lubbock before, so it’s not like we’re a music-free town or anything). But anyway, here’s Joel, large on the screen and much smaller down on the stage.

PS: How cool is this (from the linked article about J. Guzman)? “He also believes in encouraging the next generation. He teaches 20 3rd, 4th and 5th graders at the University of Texas Elementary School, a community engagement initiative with the goal of increasing the number of under-represented students in the college pipeline. The Hohner Accordion Company, for which Joel is an endorsee, provides the accordions. “We have a responsibility to continue our special Texas musical culture,” he said.”

PPS: Oh, yeah. I forgot to mention that Paul Simon guy. It was an amazing show…
