    Met Fagan in Denver at the hotel bar 4-5 years back, before a Red Rocks Show...cordial enough (actually very), every bit the rock star. Could not have made a living as a model...no doubt one of the most recognizable icons in the business.
  4. Sorry man, can't imagine....hope you get em back or made whole.
  5. Caught Lucinda at the Granada...good venue & her band is tight tight.
  6. Israeli Gear...

    Popularity has everything to do with business and nothing to do with music. Donald Fagan

    I see/saw Becker and Fagan a musical brain trust with Chuck Berry business savvy.

    Fagan certainly wrung everything he could out of his voice and had the smarts to hire superb backups. I was hooked from the first time I heard Reelin In the Years. Our little garage band didn't even try to cover em....

  12. Replaced the string savers with Glendale saddles and bridge plate & 9.5ga...sounds & runs great. Thanks for the push Deej....
  13. Good looking guitar..
  14. This acoustic sound & lyrics....
  15. Our band had to stay together...none of us had phones and it was a small town. I'm pretty sure the lead guitar player wanted the rest of us to quit.
  16. I'd bet every employee in the North Dallas GC can play circles around me...but they still have to go fetch the manager for math questions.
  17. Back-back in the day there was a music store downtown. One salesman, an aloof jazz aficionado. If you asked about a particular guitar he'd take it down and play the most pretzeled chord shapes I'd ever seen, nor could I duplicate. He'd play for 3-5 minutes, stop, put it back up...& walk away. He recognized a broke untalented guitar player when they darkened the door. Now I'd go in there circa bi-monthly...never touched that 335.

    Indeed...
  19. Indian mound in the waning lines of a sociological and personal dirge is perfect....clever wordsmithing is what you think it means to the writer and what you know it means to yourself.
