April 2005



Dan, Dan, oh where might you
be,

In San Mateo where I cannot
see.

A trip to East 4th brings
you in view,

a charming old house and
sales room too.



A Music Connection your card
does say,

instruments or musicians you
serve either way.

Parking is easy and you walk
right in,

there stands Dan with a
great big grin.



The showroom is filled with
choices galore,

all sizes and kinds do cover
the floor.

A greeting from Pele does
help you select,

her very presence has a
soothing effect.



Half size or three quarters,
take care to decide,

for a long time to come
'twill be by your side.

The tones are great and the
finish quite smooth,

when you play your bass
you'll be in the groove.

So Dan my new friend, I'm
pleased we did meet,


the new bass you sold me is really quite neat.

I'll keep it safe and
display as a treasure,

For years to come 'twill
bring me the great pleasure.


Russ Hinds, Age 81
