Coffee Shops

I’m meeting a friend at Starbuck’s later and it’s really nice that we can meet at a coffee shop rather than a bar or restaurant. I love being able to just hang for a bit and have something healthy to drink. I’m not one to hang in bars, unless I happen to be playing a gig at one, so it’s nice to have an alternative and I don’t always eat out.

There are a bunch of coffee shops around where I live. They’re all pretty good. I think I just get used to certain places and that’s where I go. Coffee shops are quieter than bars and it’s better for my voice not to have to talk at loud volumes to have a conversation. When I want to unwind and get together to chat, I like the coffee shop vibe.

The atmosphere is different when people are on caffeine and sugar rather than alcohol. I know a lot of people drink herbal teas and don’t eat sugar, but you get my drift. In LA, I see quite a few writers at coffee shops working on their scripts or books. So maybe there’s a creative energy that I gravitate towards and that’s why I dig the scene.
