incredible the stuff he came up with.
My Girlfriend said to me..."How many guitars do you need?" and I replied...."How many pairs of shoes do you need?" She got really quiet.

    :cool:


    I saw him last night (Monday) in NYC!!


    He plays every Monday night at the Iridium in Manhattan,,,, when he walks out on stage, it's like the history of electric guitar, Jazz, multi track, delay, standing there, then he starts playing,,, and he STILL is great!

    At 90 years old!!!!!!

    If you're near Manhattan, you GOTTA go see him.



    And, by the way,,, on Sunday night I had drinks and dinner with another rock star. I'm not one to drop names or anything, but,,, ahem,,,,




    I had dinner with Pearlwax! :D :cool:
    He's great, his girlfriend is great, and of course, dreamncolor is great, too!

    It's only a 45 minute train ride in the city for me, I think that's something I just gotta see. Sounds like one of those once in a lifetime things you just have to do!!

    yeah, it's jsut one of those things, "I've seen les paul" it's like whoah! amazing.



    When he walked out, he sat down and started plugging in,,, and looked at the audience,,,

    He could have walked off before he even played, and I would have said,,,, "Excellent!" :D



    Also, a couple of GREAT interviews!:
