It’s a cute scene that nicely reflects their relationship.Just too bad Andres Segovia wasn’t around back then – he had large hands and big fingers and went on to become one of the greatest guitarists nonetheless.Author’s Response: Thank you, Crow. I’m pleased to know you enjoyed this little story.*

Date: 01 Jan 2013 07:40 pm Title: Broken Chords I willing student must have a willing teacher to succeed on any level. The value of the time spent together in this little endeavor was worth far more than the result and was reflected in Adam’s smile. Thanks, for the sweet image.Author’s Response: Thank you, Cheaux. Sometimes it’s the little lessons that teach us the most. Glad you enjoyed this little story.*

Date: 01 Jan 2013 03:24 pm Title: Broken Chords Hoss and Adam, perhaps my favourite pairing. They are so good with each other, and so good for each other.Thank you so much for this wonderful little portrait of two very close men. It’s so subtle and so…perfect. Just lovely!Author’s Response: Thank you, faust. Adam and Hoss always play off each other so well, don’t they? I’m glad to know you enjoyed this little story.*





Date: 01 Jan 2013 08:28 am Title: Broken Chords I have one question, Patina.Where have you been in 2008?I will give you the answer.You where in Germany at my home and you took notes of the discussion between my friend/neighbor and me.The only difference in this is that I never feared to brake a guitar.All the other what you wrote happened to me and it was the beginning of my guitar lessons.I’m so stunned that I can only say, THANX for this story. HelgaAuthor’s Response: Wow, JoeC! My first (and last) guitar lesson was in 1991. Curling my wrist to stretch my fingers around the guitar’s neck was too uncomfortable for me to continue. Thank you so much for letting me know you enjoyed this little story.*





Date: 01 Jan 2013 12:23 am Title: Broken Chords THANK YOU! “Woman of fire” was always one of my favorite episodes, except for that fact that Hoss wound up the one inside the guitar when it really wasn’t his fault. I knew it must have hurt his feelings, even though we didn’t see that in the episode. Now I can enjoy even that part of the episode to the fullest, knowing that Adam will show Hoss that his fingers aren’t too big at all. What a perceptive and touching glimpse into both brothers, and the bond between them!Author’s Response: Thank YOU, sk! Hoss seemed eager to learn but Margarita didn’t have the patience to teach. I’m so pleased to know you enjoyed this little story.

as a guitar player, I fell in love with this story. Humour and tenderness, great mix for a great story. I could picture both brothers during that unique moment. Thanks
Thank you, mumu. I’ve only had one guitar lesson and it didn’t go well–I still can’t play one (lol). I’m so glad to know you enjoyed this story.
