I was wondering what the white guitar Joe Perry was playing was. At first I thought it might have been a Backlund, but I can see that it wasn't. I saw a lot of bands in the 80's. My least favorite concert was Aerosmith. And last night... wow; Seemed they were trying to appear timeless and in...

I love The Cult. Love of course was when they were more New Wave. Electric has so many good songs and had such straight forward great riffs.

Dokken was one of my favorite bands growing up. Yes Don is an ego maniac, but I always liked his voice. A better singer than most during that era. And George is still a favorite guitar player of mine. During a time when leads started to sound cookie cutter, he had a distinctive style and created...

The video clearly shows the objectification of women coming to enlightenment contrasted by individualism constrained by the boundaries of domestication and gender roles in a confusing time of alternate choices, expectations, impending bulldozers and flamethrowers. And that finally a motorcycle...

Hope this isn't a re-post. Wait for the verse...

Both times I went to Summer NAMM I got to see Johnny play. The first time was a club. The second time I saw him play at NAMM and got to talk to him. Super nice guy and yep, a helluva player. I grew up a rocker, but as the years have gone one, like most players have explored almost all styles and...

That was the only time in my life when I watched wrestling was when Piper came on the scene. Mid Atlantic... Loved his energy and swagger.

I live 30 minutes from two minor league teams. The Asheville Tourists, farm team for the Colorado Rockies and The Hickory Crawdads, farm team for the Pittsburgh Pirates. I like the interesting names these minor league teams have sometimes.

So, he didn't ingest any of the quills?

I'm always trying to coming up with original riffs and melodies. But other than that, I've been trying to noodle around on the fretboard trying to put together some jazzy blues stuff. And even though I don't listen to much country or even rockabilly, I really want to get much better at chick'n...

In that respect, I would say that the PRS design was influenced by a Strat and LP Special. Incidentally, I have a lot of guitars, but no PRS. I've owned a single cut and double cut, but traded both. Traded the double cut for a lawsuit era Ibanez LP, which I sold, and traded the single cut for a...

I'm not pro big business, but I think it is obvious that Anderson is making a Les Paul style guitar, rather than say a single cut guitar. If this were a song, there would be no question of the similarities. I believe a company should bring their own designs to the market instead of copying what...

I go every year. I'll be there around noon tomorrow (Saturday). Just curious if anyone here might be going.

Curse you Mark. Because of your post I talked the wife into picking one up on her way home. It was kind of like Christmas. The anticipation was better than when it actually got here.
