How I Started Learning Sitar - The Decision That Changed My Life

Hi, I'm Jeff Starr. This video is an outtake taken from my interview with Indian Slide Guitarist Joel Veena. After we finished his interview we were talking while the camera's were recording and Joel asked me how I found my teacher and began learning the sitar. I told him the story, as best as I could remember it. When I edited the video together I went back and found old emails from this time period. It turns out I had been thinking (dreaming? wishing?) about taking sitar lessons for two or more years before I actually started lessons. Learn from my mistake and take lessons as soon as you can. Don't procrastinate!
