Gather 'round children, for another Tale of Studz's Real Life...
Well, I was thinking about going to my youth group's "Valentine's Day" thing. There would be food, live entertainment, and guys giving pick-up lines which were to be judged by three young women. I had to wear something "semi-formal", though, so I was debating with myself over whether or not to go.
I decided, "Ah, why not?" and proceeded to walk to my youth group (which was less than a block from home). Once I got there, The live music and mediocre pick-up lines commenced. I stuck around with a couple of my schoolmates (who also go to my youth group), wondering why I even decided to go.
Somewhere before the last round of pick-up lines, I decided to go up and say my Meh line...
"Why are you hanging out with these people when you can do so much better?"
I got token applause... But Stan McStudz had one more trick up his sleeve...
My youth group and my SCHOOL are in the same building. Turns out that the band room was left unlocked, so I had access to my Baritone Sax. Now, you can put two and two together here...
That's right. A one-two punch. One, the half-decent pick up line, THEN...
McStudz Walked up to the stage, his Bari Sax in tow. This was it. He would try and get the girls with this one last act of defiance. Never did he do something like this on such short notice, but this would be a better moment than any. Unless, of course, The Girl was there too.
As he walked up onstage, the audience was surprised. A good surprised. They knew that they were in for a treat.
Studz got ready. "This is a little something I picked up on my walk of life," he said. And he began to play...
Needless to say, you wouldn't BELIEVE how wild the crowd was! I'm usually a shy person, but all of that seemed to melt away. I got a standing ovation from everyone PLUS 2/3 judges.
Shortly after, the judges got together to decide the winner of their hearts... (yeah, that's the point.
) And I WON. Turns out their heart is edible (I got some Chocolate Turtles for my troubles
), but the response of my surprise performance was AMAZING. I wish I got a video of it.
So I might still have hope. And Bari Sax Guys have class, man!
