Bireli Lagrene. My newest favourtie guitarists (the list, with Jeff Beck at the top, still stands. Its just grown).

Sickeningly inspiring.

Pack it in now - you'll never be that good. I'll PM you my address, as you won't be needing any guitars - I'll find a good home for them. I'll even pay postage/courier fees - fair enough?

I have a funny feeling you'll totally disregard my advice, though.....

:D :D :D

Just my guitars? You mean, you don't want my recording equipment too? Or my Marshall? Vic, mate, I seriously think you need to see a doctor. :shock:

Or better, just bypass Vic and send all your music stuff to a doctor. I can suggest one...

Very nice. However you recently let it be known that you two are practically neighbors. You can even let Scrybe come and visit them on occassion.

Just for the record, Dr John is a smokin' guitar player. 8)

AKA Professor Longhair's Crawfish Fiesta

"Personnel: Professor Longhair (piano, vocals); Dr. John (guitar); Andy Kaslow, Tony Dagradi (tenor saxophones); Jim Moore (baritone saxophone); David Lee Watson (bass); John Vidacovich (drums); Alfred "Uganda" Roberts (congas)."

(*sorry, Ric*)

Yeah, Dr. John rocks! As I understand it his main instrument was guitar till he got a fingertip shot off in a bar one night. Switched to piano after that. Gives you something more substantial to duck behind than a guitar, I suppose.

:roll: :evil:

third time (un)lucky then..........

Who would that be Ricochet? I never knew Dr. Ross played guitar??

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doug_Ross

I would have said Dr. House, but that would have made it too easy....

Actually, are there any doctors who don't play guitar? My mate who's studying to be a doctor also plays guitar......hmm, what are the chances of getting a sick note to cover GAS then? :wink:
