General
Wanna feel super old today? 40 years ago…this movie came out. Yup. FORTY. And for 40 years we’ve STILL been misquoting it. Nope. Vader never once said “Luke, I am your father.” I challenge you to find it. Leia never said “I’d rather kiss a Wookiee”, either. Be mad…but it never happened. ? Happy 40th… …and may the 4th be with you. (Oh…about that. That never was originally said byObi-Wan. It wasn’t about the “Force”. It was General Dodonna…to Han Solo before they went all kamakazi on the Death Star. It wasn’t until modern day writers got tired of hearing us say it about someone who could actually USE the force that they wrote it into “Attack of The Clones” and “Revenge of the Sith” by Obi-Wan…so our fan minds could be pleased.) #starwars #empirestrikeback #movietrivia #instafun
Once upon a time…I had a tip on my tremolo bar. Then yesterday…I lost it on stage. It rolled under a drum riser…never to be seen again. Dear @fender / @fendercustomshop … this is my sad story…worst thing that’s happened during COVID to me. Heartbreaking, isn’t it? #guitars #guitar #knowyourtone #geartalk #geartalkpnw #acousticguitar #electricguitar #gopherwood #gopherwoodguitars #sinasoid #daddario #praaudio #bogstreet #teagardenaudio #fender #fenderstratocaster #fendercustomshop
I’m social distancing with @martylongcor …I’m down here…he’s waaaaaaay up there.
Go grab this song now on any major music platform. I’ve been proud of this @eliasdummer for years. Never puts out anything lacking. This is no exception. #music #newmusic #echoingholy
Got to play with some great folks for the first time in AGES today. Yep…we social distanced…but we grooved in the pocket. …if I have to explain that to ya…you might be the wrong audience. ;) #guitars #guitar #knowyourtone #geartalk #geartalkpnw #acousticguitar #electricguitar #music
These two guys…proud beyond belief right now. There’s a brand new song out right now called “Together (We’ll Get Through This)” by @stevencurtischapman (and a few up-and-coming names…ya know…like @bradpaisley ;) ) …I’m beyond proud. I’m proud of my HUMBLE friend @brentmilligan who produced it. He’s been a co-writer with me…produced…provided instrumentation for my projects…but most of all…he’s been a dear friend for ages. I’m more and more proud of him as the years go on. This song has such a potential for HEALING right now. Please go listen to it. …and, you know, give support to those lesser known aspiring country artists like @bradpaisley . He’s also a “decent” picker. ;)
Got to play yesterday with some new picks… @bogstreet has some great picks being praised by electric players…but they are GREAT for acoustic players as well. Used it for this session yesterday. Loved it. #guitars #guitar #knowyourtone #geartalk #geartalkpnw #acousticguitar #electricguitar #gopherwoodguitars #bogstreet
One thing I’ve been pretty frustrated about as a #songwriter during this pandemic… …my journal has sat alone. I haven’t touched it. Seriously. I’ve had writer’s block. You would think I’ve had plenty of time to write…but I’ve been too busy. Anyone else in the same boat? #songwriting #songwriters #music
