Thank you brother for putting these on here. Oh the memories of Small Fish and Arcata, before I traded them for the mountains of Afghanistan and the alleys of Baghdad!

@jamesdmck6345 Hey man I'm glad to give you a "small" memory of home! I got out in '89 before the crazy stuff started happening. I hope you can get out too. PEACE brother.

I had a lot of memories attached to that childhood guitar! I He was responsible for that guitar while it was in his possession! His drunk-ass friend stepped on it and broke the neck, and then his friend and him then stomped the shit out of it! "Well we were drunk and stoned when it happened". I never spoke to him again. Didn't offer me nothing for the damages either. I take care of my instruments, and I no longer loan out guitars or any music equipment.

I cab always tell an Ovation! it's not a good guitar to play sitting down, because it always slipped away! Love the lead-work Chad!

[Chadfish]

@achemachew I know! If you knee is lower than your hip those Ovations slip on you. That was actually my guitar, and I still have it, though I play a Taylor now. The Ove is just around for sentimental value...

@Chadfish I know what you mean by sentimental value. I had a little classical guitar I had when I was 10. I didn't start learning the guitar untill I was 15. I used to jam with it with friends under a huge tree in the summertime. Another friend of mine didn't have a guitar and wanted to start playing. Being the kind guy that I am, I let him borrow it. I asked for it back in about 3 months he said I couldn't have it back, because it was in peices on his basement floor. His friend smashed it.
