I never understood why Fender and Gibson never sought/filed for patents, trademarks, and other IP protections of the day for the complete instruments. I know they went for headstocks and pickups, but they dropped the ball as far being forward thinking was concerned. I have no problem with IP...

Long one of my favorite things he's done: At about the 1:25 mark he brings his hand up to his head and you can see the size of his meathooks. There was an issue of one of the guitar mags in the late 80s/early 90s where they had Richie, Nuno, and Reb (maybe someone else as well) and the other...

The part that resonated hugely with me was when he talked about VH and learning a bit, figuring it out, but never learning all of the rest of something like Eruption. I live(d) there as a player...figuring someone wants to hear VH or any other guy, they should go listen to them. Copping their...

Watched/listened to it yesterday...following up on his age, we share a birthday...he's two years older. Baimun, you're Feb 3rd too right? I long ago looked at suck folks as inspirational/aspirational. With Richie it was from his first album Shrapnel album, cuz he had a feel/groove that was so...

Not sure if we had any originally, but easier exit access and closer to the bathroom are the domain of the boss. I am not the boss.

Missed the original posting. Keep fighting this bitch.

Here's a nice bit from Bonnie Raitt and John's impact on her. https://bsky.app/profile/bonnieraitt.bsky.social/post/3mg4eh4667k2v

Very cool and BIG congrats to the missus.

Just saw a clip the other day of McKnight talking about how the Fender Tone Master series, unlike the original tube versions that they're replicating, are inconsistent with pedals. I remember pedals sounding different from a solid state amp to a tube amp as well...and not like a Fender or...

There are so many, but here's a few faves (that I hadn't seen mentioned thus far): The Band Tedeschi Trucks Band - 12 members The Avett Brothers Dave Matthews Band Bob Marley & the Wailers Ben Harper & the Innocent Criminals Widespread Panic Any Zappa band The Hip TP & the Heartbreakers Punch...

John Hammond, Jr. has passed at 83. Saw him 4x w/ my dad in my teens. Great player of acoustic blues on Martins and Nationals, great singer, and really nice harmonica player. This falls outside of his regular stuff, but this is also my favorite harmonica playing of all time: That’s not John...

More abalone than I could ever like, but I know these guitars sound great and play as good as they sound. The Taylor GA body is a great guitar...I've played most of the various wood recipes back in the day and you can't go wrong. Big congrats.

Dylan in April Springsteen in May Tedeschi Trucks in August x2 (only have tix for one show so far) Avetts in Sept x2 Rush in October...maybe x2?? Not sure what else we'll be able to do this year.

I can't even begin a list, so many bad lyrics in songs. Fortunately for me, if I like the music, I'm generally good. That said, I'm not listening to music that is hateful and denigrating. Music for and by bigots has no need to exist.

I used to be able to find anything...that's gone, so I got nothing. ...sigh...
