For the first time ever…both of my amps took a dump at the same time last night. Luckily, Eddie, standing in the front said, “I’ve got my Boss Katana in the car.” He kindly brought it in and I proceeded to brandish this sonic blade and lay waste to the

Listening to an old Cream bootleg today…to me, it never gets old…juicy, succulent and robust…it inspires me to deploy the 335 and spray the Claptonian flavored Gristle salvos over the intergoogles…what?
Happy Birthday Duane Allman. One of my all time faves not just because of his playing but because of his fierceness as a musician and as a band leader…he would not be denied. I can dig all of that!
This photo from 8 years ago came up on my Facebook feed today…answering questions about my practice routine…one must pound and grill the Gristle. What?
Thanks for all the continued support this year. Look forward to seeing you on the road in 2024. Hope it’s a Happy and Safe 2024 for you all!!! I can dig it!!!

I always feel self conscious about talking on the phone while sitting amongst fellow travelers at the airport…I go for a stroll to speak…others not only engage in phone conversations but put their phones on speaker while sitting at the gate. I think I hate these people.

Thanks for all the beautiful messages of support in regard to the passing of my Dad yesterday. It means a lot. These pictures resurfaced of my Dad sitting right onstage a few years back at Summerfest in Milwaukee. He always had my back...in this photo...literally:)
