FEBRUARY 2006

This has been a very strange month for me!! As you all know, a couple weeks ago I was arrested due to a
scuffle with a 30 year old student while I was having
my own Open Counseling at GIT in Hollywood; and, I was taken to the police station for a few hours and then released. I'm happy, very happy, to say that the
District Attorney in Los Angeles reviewed the case and dropped all the charges on the grounds that I was
defending myself with one of my favorite guitars (a
Gibson 335) from the student who was attacking me. I
had no idea that this guy was well known around
Musicians Institute for attacking other teachers and
having massive behavior problems. Life sometimes sends you obstacles and you have to deal with them and learn from them. I'm glad everything turned out all right.

I managed to do my "ACID GUITAR" CD release Party at the same time at a packed music store in Pasadena. Myself and my band played a few songs from the CD and I signed a bunch of Photos and CD's!!

I also had my last gig in Town w/ my Band Magnetico at The Cat Club before leaving to Europe w/ P!NK to
Promote her new CD!

I'll keep you posted for march!

Take care

Rafael Moreira
