  1. I have always believed that the best guitar tone ever recorded, was the live side of Fandango. Not the quality of the songs in the medley, just the guitar sound. Obviously everyone has their own thing. But, for me it is that sound. I have tried to duplicate it many times, no luck.

    I have read many contradicting interviews about what was used to record that. So it is anyones guess what we are really hearing. But it is wonderful…

    I haven’t had a sloppy joe in years. I’ve never had Manwich. My mom always made them from scratch. But out of curiosity I looked for Manwich at the grocery store today. I thought maybe I’d buy a can. Lay’s potato chips were even on sale and I’m a proponent of putting potato chips on a sloppy joe under the bun. I walked up and down both canned food aisles twice and they don’t have it.

     

    I loved them as a kid. Then I married a woman that thought we should eat them 3 times a week. We divorced in 93, I haven’t had the desire to eat one since.

    Thanks, y'all! I don't think I would ever sell it. I did it with Prismacolor alcohol based art markers and it would probably fade with much light exposure and usage. The clear is just acrylic spray carefully misted to keep from blasting the color off, put on after the ink was really dry and lightly sanded. And it's such a crapass low end guitar I would hate to pawn it off on somebody. I still hope to get it functional and halfway decent playing, though. 

    Actually, besides the fact it was cleaver to use the prismacolor pens. You obviously know how to use them. I have some of those things, and like all mixed media they require some skill. 
     

    The overall color/contrast transition really pops in that photograph. It flat catches your eye. Especially the yellow/orange/red area on the horn. That really photographed well.

    Here is the body as it exists from a photo just taken. I can't locate the neck at the moment. I know it's around here somewhere in the junk room.

    You really did a good job on that. It has a real Tim Burton thing going without over cooking it.

    John Mayer? David Gilmour? Prince?

    Just some guitar faces that come to mind. 

    The opposite to this of course is Mark Knopfler. I once saw him do the entire Sulton solo without moving his feet, and just staring around like he was waiting on a bus. I get that he was tired of the fucking song, but damn.

    This is why I can’t stand the dude. People that rub shit in their hair daily and drool often are too vocal.

    He’d get all beat to hell in the Bills, Chiefs and Bengals offense. Well most offenses. He would not start there and several others too.

    You’re speculating, just like the rest of us…

    When you are gonna go off the reservation, don't make up elaborate stories. LEO is always going to be skeptical. Would have been better just turning up at a psychiatric facility at the end of the three weeks and say she had a nervous breakdown.

    What a tangled web, and what not.

    Shit, that is a damn good cover story.

    IF...Bill Miller was less sweet, it would win hands down.  Great tasting tea, but damn elleventy pounds of sugar.

    My experience is that sugar is far to expensive, and it fucks with the huge profits available from sales. Selling roughly $0.04 of ingredients for a $1.00 or more is a golden goose. 

    Karo syrup is the go to move for restaurants. Especially mom and pop establishments.

    I think that's a great way to handle it. Reward your regulars rather than the hunters who tail trucks and drive around all day

    Seriously? I had no idea people followed trucks.
