    imalive, your question, sir

    a guitar player is probably who i would wanna be if i had a choice in reincarnation or something. well maybe not, i kinda like the idea of a or a ..... )(#%#@!), (*&^%#@!@#%^&*%T^Y
    i'd also like to be a dude on pearl jam's message board if i ever get reincarnated
    being a great drummer though would be out of sight

    Chad,

    I don't know if I would be reincarnated into a guitar superstar, but then again yes I would.

    but for me a guitar superstar would be pretty much opposite of what most guitar badasses are about yet i'd have my own share of chaos.

    why own a ferrari? fuck all that. no need building & buying mansions. giving away lots of money would be thrilling
    what would you be doing, mr. oyster?

    I think the true great guitarist are rarely seen or heard anymore. Music industry bull shit today. Mr. Shepherd in the video put out some songs for everyday radio (blue on black) but the rest is live or rarely heard. By superstar I didn't mean Ace Frehely(?) I meant one that could express emotions through the sounds in his guitar. I'm not a big over doer either so a nice cabin on top of a mountain, near a river in Montana that I can fish/swim/hunt and play my joy/sadness through my guitar to nature to. But come out yearly for a month or so to make enough money for my little ones and help others would be ideal. I don't want a lamborgini or a Mercedes, just to be happy and live a useful life. But if I hit it big like PJ I probably would have quit while ago or toured much less. If I had enough to get where I wanted I wouldn't need anymore. It would be nice to drop 5 mil into something meaningful though.

    imalive, do you listen to a lot of his stuff? ever been to one of his shows?
    one of my favorites he does is him covering jimi
    imalive read my mind again

    yes and yes

    I've seen kws numerous times...the best was right after his first album came out....it was in a sweaty little now defunct place called Fremont street reggae and blues.....the show didn't start til 11 o'clock....I scored a ticket for 10 bucks at about a quarter til.....kws absolutely blew the roof off that place

    maybe 15 years later I saw him in the concourse at the palms casino after one of those experience Hendrix shows....I reminded him of that early show....he said "man, I don't even think I was old enough to be in that place"....nope, dude, you were not

    To be honest I don't know now. If I had some of the worldy experience these guys have then maybe I would have a better idea. I know Stone does a lot of stuff in his area and maybe that's the best thing to do. I am from Maine originally so maybe some preservation in that state. We can't lose our lobsters in Maine so maybe I will start a save the lobsters campaign! Vegetables? Living where I would like to I wouldn't need to grow anything in particular to survive but it could become a hobby, love corn, potatoes, all greens, carrots and pumpkins. Lots of pumpkins.

    I know I'm not first in line, but.........dental floss?

    I just can't do it. my hygienist asks if I'm on a regular schedule and I tell her.....very regular.....very strict....twice a year, when I see you.

    dental flossing is a real skill to accomplish. i suck with the waxed string version, therfore i use the dental floss on the little plastic hook/pick fuckers. works great & it may require two pick/hook fuckers as i can easily bust the floss before finishing.
    this is truly a wonderful invention in the realm of dental hygiene.

    yeah i should be doing this procedure more often. i am one brushing son of a gun though & just the other day switched back to tom's of maine natural toothpaste from using arm & hammer

    pure baking soda... try this
    it sure cleans your mouth
    this is why i liked using complete care arm & hammer toothpaste
    they add baking soda

    the "little plastic hook/pick fuckers" are no good either. I think Big Business Dental Floss is just scaring us for their own profits.

    Very interesting, run-the-gamut thread!

    So chadwick, with this talk of Kenny Wayne and badass guitar-playing, what do you think about (who I believe) is the greatest badass of guitar badassery?

    I watched this the other evening and it gave me tears in that really sweet, oh-my-god-this-is-the-fucking-apex kind of way.

    not a fan & i'll tell you how much grief i get from this fact. my brother enjoys stevie ray vaughan & is throughly amazed i take a pass. sure the man had huge talent, that is clearly heard. i just don't like the sound his guitar is set up with nor his voice nor his actual lyrics. call me crazy but that is how i hear it. i have never owned not one single s. ray vaughan album, tape, cd or whatever & generally turn the dial if it is on the radio

    although his interpretation of voodoo child is pretty frickin great until i hear his voice then i wanna jab those plastic dental floss/toothpicks under my fingernails

    the house is a rockin & cold shot .... omg please no

    "I respect what he did. I know he was superb guitar player that slapped out the alter with huge magical musical hands. Just not my favorite style or taste" - a friend's opinion that i throughly agree with

    hell im an ass who just recently started enjoying the chili peppers, tool & a lot of other bands. years ago the chili peppers & tool both had me taking a potato or cheese shredder to my back

    early years peppers was rap sounding & made me wanna go nuts like in a tiny bathroom
    you ever saw frankenstein in a tiny ass bathroom with the toilet up against the wall & tub shower 1 foot from the sink? wtf, dude!
    am i an elf trying to use the sink, toilet & shower tub simultaneously? i highly doubt it

    Fair enough and you're not an ass, but...ouch.

    Though I know beauty of all kinds are in the eye and ear and on of the beholder.

    I'm a late-bloomer on many fronts, so...guess I can relate.

    Have a great night out there, man.

    I'm gonna do the same.

    Pick/ floss fuckers: GUM brand makes the best ones. The rest are junk.

    SRV: great talent, amazing player, example of a one man band. Awesome but as a whole not great.

    Toms of Maine toothpaste is great. Most Mainers are given a tube of this and never reach the end because of their overall lack of teeth. Rumor has it the tooth brush was invented in Maine. Anywhere else it would have been called teeth brush.
