Couldn't hurt, right.

First time out this spring with my little Toro. At this point she owes me nothing, yet she keeps on turning over and doing her job. Today marked the start of her 6th season... Damn grass was already too damn high... She grumbled a bit. Took 12 pulls and 4 extra pumps of her primer and then...

I love Clapton. For me he was at his best post Cream. During Derek and the Dominos and then the short lived Blind Faith. Not to mention the reimagining fo his songs on Unplugged. To my mind he went from show off virtuosity ro musicality during that period. I know it's just me, but I find...

I just learned this song a few weeks ago. Playing it with my new duo partner.

There Is a Mountain, Donavan

Do you recognize the melody?

He wrote it in a graveyard.

My left handed Guild playing bassist who is a few years older than me and grew up in NYC was at the Fillmore East show when the album was recorded. Lucky old buzzard.

"Live At the Fillmore East" Just read a tribute from Steve Stevens, who is Billy Idol's long-time guitarist and is also a great player. He said if you grew up playing guitar in the 70s Fillmore East was your bible. And then there was Eat a Peach.

RIP Dickey Betts. Every time I play a solo I hear a little Dickey in me. I was fortunate to see him in cincert several times with ABB and once years later with his band Great Southern. He was a great. Super melodic and super fluid player who was at the forefront of southern rock. Ans he...

So I have a workaround that gets used on my jam room from tim to time. My bassist only has a small practice amp. I also have a small bass amp. Sometimes we run both but I sometimes mic on of the amps and use a powered speaker run through my mixer on monitor channel and not on the mains...

My sister had a really hard to play, crappy, fat and wide necked classical that I struggled to master my first chords on when I was 10. I saved up my allowance and lawn mowing money and bought a little Kalamazoo parlour guitar. When I was in 6th grade, 55-years ago. I don't suck but I should...

Do you guys prefer people playing original songs or covers at open mics? I would rather hear a cover of a good song than most crappy originals I hear out there. One open mic I have played a few times requires that one of your 2 songs be an old timey or traditional song.

i just started learning Dire Wolf. Not sure why I never did before.

Just make the hole bigger. I've never seen a strap designed with a hole big enough to fit over end pin jack.

Does this convo. belong in the mundane comments thread? Pencil talk, you're on the air - go!

I just played one last Monday night on our ski trip to Bend, OR. I played an original that my cat helped me write called I Smell the Dogs On You. I played Doc Watson's version of Summertime. I also played a bit of Death Don't Have No Mercy...probably not the best choice lol. I borrowed a...

Ugh. We were out skiing in warm, sunny Bend, OR. Sure it was nice but while we were relegated to skiing groomers and slush it was nuking snow in VT. Just got home yesterday.

Sorry to hear. I like the New Haven store better than WP.

They went up a lot in a decade. I paid around $550.00 for mine new in '81.
