I love pedals and effects, but I don't always gig with my board. Sometimes I just want to play and express myself with guitar & amp. Nothin' fancy, just keep it simple and play my heart out!
The more I play I think pedals can hide a musician's faults. With that said, I probably use my board...
My son's band had a show/gig on Friday night and afterward I left to see a friend's band play across town. I made it to the show ahead of schedule since they did not start until about 10:40 pm. Got to talk to my friend and several other friends that also made it to the show. Good...
My dog just turned one this month? It's time to transition from puppy food to an adult blend of nutrition. I generally get my pet food from a local Feeders Supply. The dog's name is Fender and he is very healthy and a typical CRAZY Boston that makes me laugh all the time!
Looking for...
Just curious about the stuff that players keep in their guitar cases. I keep a tele, strap, strings, pair of pliers and a microfiber cloth. This seems to cover the bases for me.
What's in your case?
My wife likes to go to yard sales and I occasionally tag along. I can browse with the best of 'em when I'm in the mood. She will find a gem or two from time to time (mostly dishes).
I hear people tell stories of finding her valuable things, but its just not happened for me.
What have you...
I've only been writing songs for a few years, but I enjoy it quite a bit. I cannot tell stories in a song so I just try to share my insights and thoughts about things. Here's my current favorite!
Song title - I WANT YOU LIKE NEVER BEFORE
Give me your love now,
You've touched my soul gal,

I enjoy watching an occasional game on tv. This weekend there are two taking place (NHL & NFL).
The NHL makes a real splash with a skills contest on Friday and follows it up with the actual game on Saturday. The skills contest is interesting with the different degrees of challenging tests of...
So you are a musician on the local scene.
Do you regularly make the rounds to see others perform?
I do and I think it reflects support. Other musicians know and respect the time and support which generates good will. I'm in the process of teaching this to my son. It is very important for...
My son's band has released a new video.

A man cheats on his girlfriend Lorraine with a woman name Clearly.
Lorraine suddenly dies.
At the funeral, the man stands up and
shouts 'I can see Clearly now, Lorraine is gone'.
Just asking this question for a friend btw.
So this frontman can sing well and he writes good lyrics. On the other hand, he brings his girlfriend to every practice, will not sing any cover songs, shows up to gigs in pants that look like a family of three moved out of, rarely combs his hair...
Back in November of 2012, my son (Josh) was on a mission. The mission was to find a Gibson SG that was in nice condition with a fat neck. I was browsing Craigslist when I found a very interesting posting for a like new SG that was all original with case for $450! I traded emails with the guy...
This is my son's band. This video was made right after the band formed and was their first song (Don't Need Money).

Dude, post your video and show me how you do it?
As I grow older, I wonder about the meaning of life and all of the possibilities around me. I like to socialize and share things with my family and friends. I take time to reflect on my life experiences and also watch and listen to others about their daily experiences.
Are you motivated by...

First of all, let me say that I'm not pushing alcohol or any product. I just enjoy having a drink on occasion and wonder what the rest of you enjoy? If you are a non-drinker, that is fine too.
What is your go to beverage?
#1 - Elijah Craig
#2 - Jeffersons (small batch)
Tell me the absolute scariest moment in your life. It may be the time you saw your grandma butt-naked getting out of the tub, could be that time you got a tax notice from the IRS, or that night you encountered an intruder in your house or maybe it was the first time that you saw your wife with...
AND I found a guitar pedal I had forgotten about (Keely 'Time Machine' boost and an unopened fifth of Makers Mark. What kind of goodies lurk in your closets or garage or junk rooms?
