  1. I got to spend a couple hours listening to Elvin Bishop play his 1959 ES-345 last night. It sounded incredible and convinced me not to sell my 335. It was on the chopping block because its not the sound I'm currently after, so it spends all its time inside the case. Elvin reminded me that I'll get back to the blues at some point. When I do its a great blues guitar.
  2. I saw Elaine Bishop and Charlie Musselwhite last night. They put on a wonderful show that may as well been billed Blues 101. They told a lot of stories about the Chicago Blues scene in the 60's. In my 50s Ive noticed that sometimes I'm the oldest guy in the crowd, sometimes everybody's my age, and sometimes I'm the youngest guy in the room. That was definitely the case last night. Show was over by 9:30 and I briefly considered catching a train over to Oakland to catch my friends at a metal show, but went home instead. Fucking old people! I went to see Black Midi a couple months ago with a friend who's 35. It was his 1st time experiencing being the old guy in the room. Funny

  9. I've also listed this beauty. Hit me up if anybody is interested, there is a Surly discount. I always list high on Rwverb in case a sucker comes along while I'm waiting on a reasonable offer. I'm gonna be listing a few more soon as well I think, need to decide which. Im thinking the 335, Explorer, and Hummingbird- I guess that would make it largely a Gibson clearance. All great guitars, I'm just trying to free up some space. Ill be selling some amps soon too.

  10. In Istabul we had to go through security just to get the the ticket counter. Then immigration, then the for real security line.
  11. I just listed this Gibson Les Paul Doublecut on Reverb and Craigslist. If anybody here wants it I'd make a great deal. I haven't listed anything on Craigslist in a while. Within moments of posting I had a text saying can they pick it up today, then had a 6 digit number sent to me from Google voice that he wanted me to text back to verify im real. Seams sketchy. As I was texting him to respond to the ad with a number, I got another text that was identical to his initial text, so I ignored both since. Anybody know what the scam is?

  19. I remember it was on guitar because I saw your Matchless on stage, so positioned myself over there. You all came out and you were 1st and just started strumming some chord like you were doing a little sound check, but it turned out to be an intro when everybody else jumped in. What we do is different and goes on a lot longer, but the idea is the same. I also remember that I drove about an hour and a half to that show through the pouring rain, white knuckling it through the Santa Cruz mountains and smoked a joint to calm down when I got there, my memory may be fuzzy. Thats the only time I met CM face to face. He was on tour so long he barely knew where he was. We were in Santa Cruz and he seemed to be surprized that it was that near San Francisco. /csb Ill listen to the track when I get to some speakers. I hate phone speakers.
  20. We open with that one live and I'll go on stage and start playing those 3 bass notes super slow while the house music is still on and people are still outside smoking or whatnot, kinda acting like I'm just tuning or dialing in my amp something. Just dronie / monotonous for as long as it takes for anybody else to reach the stage. Then Andy starts doing the same on guitar, just making ugly ambient sounds and our singer will start saying stuff through the mic. Then we'll make eye contact at some point and Jo hits the ride and Rocky starts singing that somber line and people kinda realize we've started after they are already waist deep in it. I stole the idea when I saw @Celery Man do a similar thing on guitar with his old band at the beginning of their show. Plus our drummer is a beginner, so it helps her come in easy.
  21. Here's some shitty punk rock we recorded back in March and just got back finally. Listen to Dirty Years by Racer5 #np on #SoundCloud I play guitar on the 1st and last track, and bass on the 2 muddle ones.

  23. They've been copying them since 1959. It should be criminal.
  24. We are kindred in that regard. Im not a signature / relic guy so I didn't go that route, but my DuoJet is a red, '63RI double cut, which is exactly what Malcolm's was before he molded the hell out of it.
  25. I've had a Mark V that I had a love hate relationship with, and I passed on an opportunity to buy our drummer's wife's Dual Rectifier cheap when they moved away. They're great amps for what they do. I played with that DR a ton and couldn't get my sound out of it. I like that open, organic 70's type crunch and those things are like a more focused, gain crunch. I wish they worked for me since they built here in Northern California. The last show I was part of I played a Gretsch DuoJet into Twin Reverb with the Shaggy Screamer in between. Afterwards, this younger guy I know, who a wonderful musician in one my favorite local bands, was telling me how much he loved my sound. He said he had no better way to describe it other than pure Rock and Roll! Ill take it! It's those FilterTrons I keep going on about.
