Difficulties in Analyzing the Culture

I would have to say that in anaylizing my culture, getting information and interiews and exposer is NOT the problem. I am amazed at how much of this culture is right in my own backyard (and local starbucks!) The difficulty that I am arriving at is the amount of information I must process, It has been somewhat overwhelming for I am not a guitar major at UNT, so I have a laymens knowledge at best, so when confronted mith the mass of a virtuoso like William Kanengiser, things become overwheling, I have thouroughly enjoyed mystudy so far in that, it has incorporated many aspects of music, I have seen the cultural imapact, such as men who take their wives on dates to see the concerts, the music theory side, the rich historical background, and the humanities in general. Learning all of the rules of engagement was interesting, especially the performer leaving the stage and then coming back for more applause every time surprised me, even being in band for five years and attending numerous concerts all over the states took me by surprise.

here is a great piece by kanengiser
