Chapters
00:00 - Flying pick playing all the way through


Notes
A brief odyssey on one of the best guitars I have personally ever owned….this old ‘62 is like the Larry Holmes of old Strats…don’t be fooled by that sexy ass burst…it’s a tough strong unforgiving tank of a guitar…
Big neck, kinda heavy, with rude ballsy pickups….you gotta man handle this one, but damn is it cool.

We have had a tumultuous relationship…i even sold it once like a fool years ago, missed it terribly, and then bought it back.

Homeskoolin’ Bonus “Take Two�

Chapters
00:00 - Heart - Little Queen cover in the studio


Notes
This is the second take of the Amazing Dawgs playing “Little Queen” at yesterdays rehearsal…not too shabby, but it will get way better.

Guest vocalist is the amazing Criss “Sabbath” Cain….he is the band photographer that tours with us. Coolest dude on earth, he is always kind enough to sit in for Ann at soundchecks and rehearsals, because any real musician absolutely HATES playing without a singer.

The back half of this clip features a 9 year old guest guitarist you may have heard me talk about before. First time he ever played with headphones on.
How hard did he stick the knife on that riff in the break???
After he got done he said, “those guys were playing the chorus chords wrong” hahaaaa

Look out world.

Peter Gabriel “Mother Of Violence”

“Walking the street with her naked feet So full of rhythm but I can't find the beat Snapping her heels clicking her toes Everybody knows just where she goes Ah fear, fear, she's the mother of violence Making me tense to watch the way she breed Fear, she's the mother of violence You know self-defense is all you need It's getting hard to breathe It's getting so hard to believe To believe in anything at all Mouth all dry eyes, blood shot Data stored in microdot Kicking the cloud with my moccasin shoes T.v. Dinner, T.V. News Ah 'cause fear Fear, she's the mother of violence Don't make any sense to watch the way she breed Fear, she's the mother of violence Making me tense to watch the way she feed The only way you know she's there Is the subtle flavor in the air Getting hard to breathe Hard to believe in anything at all But fear”
