In that other thread, tbone reminded me that I haven't checked out Vinnie's new digs. Six feet away from a KISS Kasket and Bumblebee. Thinking about Dime still puts me in a mood. Such a fucking shame.

Estes Park Colorado
User name kinda checks out. Seconded. Stanley Hotel, as a hotel, is overrated af. No A/C in some rooms kinda shit. Go for the tour and history, imo. Not a fan of the Estes Park congestion, but RMNP is a jewel. Go anywhere inside. See anything. It's all worth it.

You laugh but I've solved two murders just this year. That Les Paul is gor-geous! That looks like 3rd party relic'ing and I've only come across a couple of places that do a job worthy of a Gibson. Gibson's in house team does a great job too, but to get the ~$1000 relic job like in that pic, the Gibson Custom Shop would start at $5k easy. It's almost obscene.

Recommend me a good band to see in Dallas tomorrow night
Word. A bit of trivia, the girl Amber Alert is named for, Amber Hagerman, is buried at the same cemetery. Her plot is in the back in front of the graves of a large group of other children who were kidnapped and murdered. It makes for a touching and powerful monument. You know, if you're looking to get saddened or depressed while on your trip.

Vinyl
One more down, 3 to go. This one also has a case that's seen better days, but the book inside, imo the second biggest reason to get these sets, was still sealed. $50 well spent, imo.

Tone Shop in Addison is worth the trip of you have time. Since you might be near Arlington, you can stop by and say hi to this dude. His brother is there now too. It's tradition to leave a dime on the stone.

@AnotherUTFan Out here in an east L.A. Guitar Center if you're looking to complete the set. (I stop at ALL the Guitar Centers. I don't give a fuck.)

Who should we blame for Bro Country?
Once he showed how much money there was in the genre, shit went down hill fast. Killed country music. Side note: Garth Brooks is awesome. Did you happen to see his solo performance retrospective thing from a few years ago? It was really good. Almost as good as that This Is Garth Brooks concert from 1992, but for much different reasons.

There ain't no cure for the summertime blues... Man, 21 years old. What a damn shame. These type of dudes fascinate me. I mean, who did this guy copy? Who laid the foundation for this guy to build on? He reminds me of Buddy Holly in that. Pure originals.

Perfect Casting
I know what he was going for and what the character required, but he performed it without subtlety or charm. The difference was stark imo. Pinto was simply outclassed by a singular acting moment. That movie was about Abraham's Salieri, and Hulce was little more than a clownish stage prop for Abraham to contrast off as he did everyone else save perhaps Jeffrey Jones, who himself had to make a spectacle without much to work with and mostly accomplishes it. #runonsentence I doubt I would be disappointed with Hulce's effort had Abraham not raised the bar on the entire movie. Well, Elizabeth Berridge's tits also raised the bar.

Perfect Casting
Everything he did was gold. EVERYTHING. Would be considered an all-timer had cancer not ended him too early. Perfect example of an actor who makes the role - he often stole scenes despite being a secondary character. (Probably not a great casting, but a stellar actor who makes directors look good regardless of the role.) My list of actors and performances that define the character: F. Murray Abraham (and lifetime Longhorn) - Salieri, Amadeus (takes a villain without arc and infuses depth and sympathy in one of the most masterful performances ever to the point that another actor, Hulce, with a clumsy and trite performance gets elevated to an Oscar nomination just for being within Abraham's Salieri gravity sphere) Tim Curry - Frankenfurter, Rocky Horror Picture Show (good luck getting ANYONE else to turn in a comparable performance) Ryan Reynolds - Deadpool, Deadpool (there is no movie, much less franchise, without this casting)
