Beautiful Women Who Also Happen To Be Kickass Guitarists
I guess she doesn’t make the cut for some of you because of ones definition of beauty. But from a players point of view, it is Joni Mitchell, and then everyone else. Even the guys at Guitar player magazine, who spent years trying to define how she changed the instrument. Are still in awe of her talent. From a pure technical point of view, her playing, combined with her voice, she stands alone.

College Football in 2020 in danger?
I didn’t say it did. I said as a viewer I found the lack of fans took some of the fun out of watching it.

College Football in 2020 in danger?
I have no fucking idea if they play. What I do know, is that if it plays out like golf is currently being played (no fans). It will not be the same. I thought golf would be the most immune to no fans. But, it actually does impact the broadcast. And if you’re a long time golf watcher you will notice the players play different, act different and don’t seem particularly in to it.

Danny Masterson from "That 70's show" commits to Baylor
You sort of provided why he was a rape’n. When it comes to celebrities. If you gotta tell them who you are, you probably ain’t the slice of pie you think you are.

Is anyone else a sucker for period pieces / historical dramas?
I didn’t think much about it until I got married. The wife would watch a BBC broadcast that always featured period pieces, and I would get stuck watching with her. What I walked away with, is that there are a lot of English actors and actresses that are really fucking good at their craft. The depth of talent in the U.K. is amazing.

Harbaugh’s strange inability to land a great QB is baffling.

There is a photograph of him playing a Epiphone Broadway floating around. I found it at Equipboard. That said I have no idea what the man played, but I am interested.

Best drumming on a song, ever
Best is subjective. Influential is a little different. There were two songs that were the staple of every garage band in the country when they were released. Wipe out will always be number one. Though few do it as well as The Ventures. People seldom notice just how important the guitar work is when performing that song. Bogle and Nookie Edwards are incredibly good at hitting every string EVERY time. No distortion to hide a bad night. The other is Iron Butterfly’s In-A-Gadda-Vida. This song changed the roll of the drummer in a modern rock band. It was 17 minutes of confusion, but it had that long almost conceptual drum solo that allowed a competent musician to demonstrate the possibilities of putting the drummer out front. Just my take...

The Surly Beginner Guitar Thread
Oh, I can do a Duane impression. It ain’t good, but it’s an impression. And maybe it is the high quality recording that we enjoy today. But I find a lot of what the Trucks kid does with a slide to be a little easier on my ears then Duane’s style.

Formerly DT: COVID-19 - Featuring Lots of Politics, now CR because political talk not going away
If there is any federal financial benefit from reporting COVID-19 as either the cause of death, or contributed to death. You can bet your ass there is corruption. I don’t care to do the mental gymnastics to speculate how. I’m just relying on my 6 decades of watching humanity make a buck.

Can you elaborate on the melted plastic issue? This thread has convinced me to buy one of those, and would appreciate a photo to educate me as to what exactly melted, and can it be corrected?

I wondered about the Pegasus/horse tag being on a Martin. I was unaware of a Steve Miller model.
