The audio really sucks, but it's interesting that someone got video at all as security was being real camera-nazi in the venue that night.

I love to listen to someone playing a Les Paul! A truly great guitar. I took my wife to see Steve Vai at the House of Blues last year...a great great show. If you can ever see him, Eric Johnson or Joe Satriani...Go see them.....You won't be disappointed. ____________________________________________________________________?

Be careful what you ask for. The key word here is PLAYS! In 1980, I inherited a 1977 Les Paul Custom that still sits in the corner unplayed. Once in a while, I pull it out, change the strings, plug it in, and give it a spin, but sadly, it is truly wasted on me. It belonged to my late brother so there is a huge emotional attachment. I keep hoping that I will hookup with some talented musician who will do it justice. I also have two rather nice acoustics (a '65 Gibson LG-1 and a '97 Breedlove C22) that I tend to torture (along with anyone within earshot) with a bit more frequency depending on my mood. I caught Steve Vai with Dweezil Zappa (and Terry Bozzio) a few months back performing Frank's music and it was a great show. Donna

Even if you can only play "row, row, row your boat" on that thing, admit it, it's still a blast. Get that thing out of the corner! I used to play well, but now age, hard living, and complete lack of practice for years and years has left me with only a American Standard Stratoscaster and 60W Princeton Chorus Amp. It's not much, but it's a sufficient setup to remind me that I severly suck and couldn't play backup for an elementary school garage band. But I still torment the neighbors from time to time. And really, isn't that the point? |
