Sleep-Deprived Rusty Man Plays The Blues...Loudly

Miscellaneous guitar-isms and having fun with a rendition of "Somebody Get Me A Doctor". Dave is absent, so sing loudly wherever you are :)

Special significance of "Dance The Night Away": The song gave me the courage that I needed to finally walk up and ask my major Freshman crush to dance at Homecoming. That song in a dimly-lit gymnasium in 1981 was a special thing.

Wow, I didn't know that shirt was so huge! haha

Incredibly talented... still.

:)

[bartolemeo]

Thank you. I'm glad that you and the boys enjoy it. Fun to record ;)

[blahman178]

That was good! I like the same type of music that you do (from what I saw you play). How are those single coils working out for you when youv play heavier stuff?

[bartolemeo]

They work out ok. They are the new SCN (samarium cobalt noiseless) pickups. With the tap button in the volume knob, you can come pretty close to a warm humbucker.

ONE WORD... ENCORE!!!!! Great googlie mooglie dude PLEASE make more of these! A day without your Marshall, is like a day without drinkin a Mountain Dew. It just shouldn't happen.

Thank you very much! :) and I thought it was rough. At this stage in life, I'll take any panty-tossing which results from a solo :)))

[mcb350z]

Dude if I could jam like that I'd pull up an shred in front of Walmart with a 5 gallon drum for all the tips and panties people would be throwing at me. You rule!

I need to invest in one too....I think that Ed used an old MXR Phase 90. I hope that the electronics are the same. His sound in '78 was amazing. Thank you for the kind compliment.
