I grew up with this guy...we went to the same church...chased the same girls...and, did other things I can't and won't post about. He's all about jamming. Always has been.
He's the one wearing the Helen shirt and shorts.
If I'm not mistaken, that's the same Les Paul he's been playing forever.
List seven songs you are into right now. No matter what the genre, whether they have words, or even if they're any good, but they must be songs you're really enjoying now. Post these instructions in your blog along with your seven songs. Then tag seven other people to see what they're listening to.
I'm doing complete CD's, in no certain order.
1. Vivaldi: The Four Seasons
2. Dave Matthews Band: The Complete Weekend On the Rocks.
I can't stand his politics, but that band can get way down.

Violins, Violas, Cellos and Basses...is the Bow more important than the Instrument?
Excerpt:
They were archetiers, craftsmen who make bows for violins, violas, cellos and basses, and wood from the pernambuco tree is the only known material, synthetic or natural, out of which a bow maker can construct a top-quality, performance level bow.
And Paridise by the Dashboard Light ain't too bad either. Know what I mean?

LONDON (AP) - Grammy-winning singer Meat Loaf, who collapsed on stage during a concert, is being treated for exhaustion brought on by a virus, hospital officials said Tuesday.
A spokesman for Mercury, the singer's record company, said a second concert planned for Tuesday night at London's Wembley Arena had been postponed.
Meat Loaf, 52, collapsed Monday on the first sellout date at the venue. A spokesman for North West London Hospitals said the pop star was in Northwick Park Hospital recovering "from exhaustion due to a prolonged viral infection."
"Meat Loaf will be re-evaluated by doctors today and further information about his status will be made available," the spokesman said.
Born Marvin Lee Aday, Meat Loaf made his name with theatrical stage productions and operatic songs, including "Paradise by the Dashboard Light,""Two out of Three Ain't Bad" and "Bat out of Hell."
He won a Grammy Award for "I'd Do Anything for Love (But I Won't Do That)." His films include "The Rocky Horror Picture Show" and "Fight Club."
It was a Saturday, and I was in the kitchen working on my wife's birthday dinner - we've got a bunch of people coming over and she chose a meal which is a major production. I've got The Dave Matthews Band (DMB) on about 10 - shaking the windows, a cold beverage, and I'm cooking my ass off. Now I can trash a kitchen - ingredients everywhere - floor, walls, ceiling, you name it. Listening to the DMB, I remember they are playing close by and it's sold out, and I forgot to get tickets. FORGOT to get tickets. I tell my wife and she says "no big deal". She's a 10.
15 minutes later: I hear my wife scream "SAM". The music was so loud she had to scream. Anyway, I look through the window and I can see her talking to the mailman - not our regular mailman, but a substitute. I walk outside and he's listening to the music as well. Hell, it was so loud I guess the entire neighborhood was listening. I take pride in being Riff Raff.
He said "Would you like two tickets to the DMB concert? Pick me up out of the yard. Is that strange? He delivered them on Sunday.
So, there are three points to this story (1) it was the best encounter with the species vealuseggplantusparmesonous to date and (2) the mail here does run on Sunday and (3) Loud Music is Good!
Although I disagree with the DMB’s politics 100%, they can GET DOWN!
