My Fab Weekend with John Lennon and Yoko Ono
I got to hang out with John Lennon and Yoko Ono one fab weekend in 1971. I never knew there was a visual of the moment until someone (Mark Mahal, ...
Hi Mark. If we ever meet should we share that piece of John's birthday cake you've kept in your freezer all these years?

A 12 string guitar tribute to Erik Friedlander's Yakima
I saw cellist Erik Friedlander a few weeks ago and really liked his Block Ice and Propane, especially the tune Yakima, and worked up this little ar...
Thanks. I've got a big time guitar bias too, but it's a great tune no matter what. I've got more strings to make noise with than a cello , but they've got that sweet sustain.

@jonathanbarajas Thanks back to you. I fell in love with May This Be Love the first time I heard it back in the day so I know what you mean. The guitar is a mutt from the shelter, meaning I got it at a pawn shop for $30 15 years ago and it doesn't have a brand name on it.

About Gary's Escape
I do these videos for fun and expression (music is my "escape"), not money. I respect the principles of copyright and give credit, for example, if I arrange and play someone else's tune (like Jimi or Galileo or Howe or Friedlander or Johnson), or in the case of My Fab Weekend, use the work of filmmaker Jonas Mekas, from whom I bought my copy and to whom I direct people (besides, we shared the moment--I'd love to see what's on his cutting room floor). I believe that any use I've made of someone else's copyrighted work is a "fair" use.

@themachinist1000 Thanks for the good word--great stuff on your channel as well. You're right about Hardiman the Fiddler--I play it in DADGAD. The second song (my tune Planxty Galway) is different.
