so I was playing slide guitar in a drum circle the other day

My acoustic guitar is broken and is now only suitable for slide-playing and only in a tribal setting. So, when the improv comedy troupe that I am "musical director" for plays at a small festival called GrooveFest and are invited to join in on a drum circle right afterward, I brought my guitar. Now, slide guitar might sound like an odd thing for a drum circle, but I do it all the time with my friends the Roving Noise Ordinance Violation.

So at this drum circle, there is a professional drum circle co-ordinator who conducts a bit. He instructs everyone else in the circle to quiet down for a measure or two while I play guitar & my friend Buck plays the didjeridoo, and then he makes a remark about the slide guitar in a drum circle afterward, something along the lines of "I've never had one of those in a drum circle before, that's pretty cool"

SO anyway, afterward this guy comes up to me and says "You're a bad man. You can get a hold of me here" and gives me a piece of paper reading "Justin Savage, singer-songwriter" and has his phone number on it. This seems like it could be a good opportunity to get paid for some music maybe. But this guy seemed really creepy. Haven't called him yet, can't decide if I want to call or "misplace the number somewhere." What am I getting at? I don't remember.
