I was looking at homes in Pacific Palisades on trulia and was struck by how many have thick vegetation right up to the doors and windows. Multiple trees hanging over roofs and over wooden decks. Many of the houses are basically sitting in or are directly adjacent to forested areas and brushy...
:LOL:
My 09 Edwards LP is supposedly from the era when Edwards had parts being produced in China or wherever but it smokes. Has one of the nicest, slickest rosewood boards I've ever laid hands on.
The question is are these better than, or at least on par with my Edwards ES and LP? That's a tall order because every Edwards I've owned or layed hands on was a killer instrument.
He's saying it like a smug, all knowing former statesmen, read: elitist, with a big ego. We this and We that. Yeah sure bro. Calling Trump a bully meanwhile Trudeau was freezing trucker bank accounts is pretty rich. Where was he then? And I hate to break it to Grandpa hyperbole, Canada is at the...
Not even sure Gibson is producing 355's at the moment but a used one is 5k or more and the Epi comes with Gibson custombuckers factory for $1299. I don't need a Gibson to beat the shit out of at 150-$200 per man gigs, lol.
Ain't had it since '13. It would suck to watch the home I built burn down but I don't own that much stuff I really care about and it'd make my next move hella easy. I could have all the important stuff out in 15 minutes or less.
Maybe so but I also can't really think of anything more telling about a person's life than to be 91 and still telling people to "F off" publicly like some 14 year old kid. .
A lot of celebrity homes appear to be toast unfortunately. I think Brad Paisley and Hairspray Ricki Lake also lost homes, among a bunch of others. People seem to get the idea some of these places are large luxury estates but a glance through Trulia shows a basic half assed home in the Palisades...
I was watching a printer's alley club, bourbon street. Was a video of a more recent jam. I used to hit that one back in 06 and they were bringing in real deal guys from down south. Some of the Neal family and other pretty heavy duty players. Looks pretty watered down today by comparison and...
I try to keep track of the blues and soul scene a little bit. It's been a downhill run for the better part of it since the 90's. I love the players, the people, the music. The blues scene has not only shrunk but has diminished in quality since that time. A lot of throwback and cliche stuff has...
Short man's syndrome, also known as the Napoleon complex, is a derogatory stereotype that describes people who are short and have aggressive or domineering social behaviors. It's based on the idea that people compensate for their height with these behaviors.
I dunno, that headstock screams fake to me. And it has a crooked tuner. I get so sick of seeing even big money guitars that looked like Stevie Wonder installed the tuners. There was a Ribbecke archtop on Reverb a while back listed for a million bucks and all the JGF guys got annoyed that I...
Of Sam and Dave "hold on, I'm coming" and "soul man" fame. Died from complications related to a surgery at 89 years old.
Always dug his stuff. He didn't have a very easy time with his career post Sam and Dave. Opening for elvis impersonators is pretty pathetic. Wonder what musically clueless...
