Hey all,

some of you may have noticed i haven't been on in a coons age. Its because i have ben travelling north (not at the gorge as planned, really nice sets) and i have now found a PC. Im currently in Bum-fuck alaska, also known as Valdez. Its raining, foggy, and smells like fishsticks. I'm sure once the bad weather clears the mountain scenery will be apreciated. I haven't touched a strat in a LONG time (a week exactly) but i did manage to get my hands on my uncles Mint condition ALL original 67 Gold Top Les paul, its a beauty!. That was a coupel days, and a couple hundred miles ago in White Horse. I checked out the Dawson City (Yukon) Music Festival. ALot of folk stuff, but a few interesting bands, alot from the Yukon as well which suprised me. It did't smell much better there either due to the mass amounts of hippies and...excuse me...natives. Luckily i have my acoustic guitar, and have actually been playing along with stadium arcadium. I doubted the album for a long time and never bought it but the day before i left i picked it up, and now i realize that it is good, and fun to play with. FInally i have a source for tabs on a few parts, but i have been training my ear to try and learn them on my own. Well i geuss i should go and do nothign in a motorhome for a couple more hours, but hey, im back for a few days!

ps: come save me if your in the area, im in Valdez, Alaska, Otter Bay RV park!

    Neat vacation. Good that you can bring your guitar. I'm flying to europe in about 3 weeks and I can't fit my acoustic on the plane.
    If idle hands are the devil's workshop, he must not be very productive.

    I take my A&L with me EVERYWHERE.
    Believe me, when I was growin up, I thought the worst thing you could turn out to be was normal, So I say freaks in the most complementary way. Here's a song by a fellow freak - E.V
