Wow Hack, never knew you were so deep.

I went through my guitar/bass phase and realized the only way I could be unique was to make some sort of experimental "noise". I just started playing too late and had too many other obligations to have time to sit and practice enough to become technically proficient.. I had a Clapton strat for the more manageable neck size, a Spector bass and a couple other Fenders. It was fun being in bands except for the egos. That includes my own!

Now I've got a crap keyboard and a Teach Yourself Piano book. I write weird songs about trees and motels that aren't there any more, and listen to MoFro and JJGrey. I might even take up the washboard.

BTW:http://jjgrey.com I didn't know he was nominated for some Blues Artist award (BB KIng Award?) in Canada. Seems like he's always around here; we talk to him often. And dammit he's famous in Canada!
