Saturday 6 ;)

By May 26, 2018Friday Five
Happy weekend! I’m sorry to be a day late…life, ya know? So we’re doing the Saturday 6 this week instead of Friday 5, and here they are!
Caffeine Nap
Do you like coffee, naps, and being productive?  Then you might like the caffeine nap.
Favorite New Insta Hashtag
https://www.instagram.com/explore/tags/ancientegypt/  I love learning about ancient Egypt. The architecture, the art, the mythology…all so fascinating. I recently discovered this hashtag and added to my feed to get daily nuggets of info and inspiring photos.
Insuring Your Instruments (and home)
I just switched insurance companies. And it was ridiculously easy. Now all my instruments are specifically insured, and I’m paying quite a bit less than I was for renters insurance. Lemonade is a newer insurance company that uses a peer to peer model. They take a flat fee and extra monies go to a charity of your choice. Caveat: As I am a new customer, I haven’t yet had to make a claim and can’t speak to that side of the process. But I was able to get coverage very quickly and easily. At this point, it’s only available in a few states. Worth checking out.

Music Therapy Source runs on love. You can be a rockstar by donating $5/month to help cover costs and keep the Friday 5 alive!

What I’m Listening To
I probably reference this album once a year because it is my go-to instrumental jazz-rock album for being productive. It’s “What We Must” by Jaga Jazzist. And I’m listening to it right now. (Spotify link)
Guitar Tip
Setting up your own guitar to play comfortably doesn’t have to be difficult. I find this video to be helpful in adjusting the action (string height) on my acoustic guitars.
Have a great weekend, and Happy Memorial Day to readers in the US!

Matt
