June 9th- Les Paul's birthday. Google's tribute on their home page is really sweet- check it out. Wish I'd taken the time to see him live.

A great man, Les Paul. R.I.P.

    Yeah, I saw that. Pretty cool.

    This also makes today the 8 year anniversary of the Dallas show from the Riot Act tour, in which they gave a shout out to Les on his birthday, and Stone played Les Paul guitars for the entire show.

    This really is cool. Here's a brief, intersting article on Google's "Les Paul encore":
