Robert Evans
I started playing guitar at 13, and played heavily through high school. I spent a couple years in college and was very active with the guitar. Played in a band for a while, and had a good time with it. But, after college, I focused more on career and other such adulting things. It became more of a hobby than a passion, for a good 10 or 15 years. A few years ago, I was in a car accident and suffered some minor injuries. Unfortunately, some of the so-called minor injuries was minor nerve damage. This effected my playing badly; it was like I was a beginner again. Chords were stiff and difficult to construct, my coordination was shot, my movements were slow and spastic. I could not even hold on to my pick any more, I could not feel it and could not tell sometimes if it was even in my hand. Leads were impossible. I considered selling it all off, and just putting it down. I decided to stick with it a while and hope it got better. The doctors said that the nerve damage could regenerate, so I pushed on hoping for recovery. I happened on an online guitar institute that helped me recover much of the ability I lost. It is still a lot of work, and much to improve, but at least I have tools and help to get there. So, now, I am writing, improvising, and looking to projects that I am becoming involved with. It’s been a long haul, to say the least. But, the journey of a lifetime begins with a single step.
