Us oldsters invented geezer rock! Glad to see you are carrying the torch!
Seen most of these guys in concert, met Jon Bon Jovi, Tom Petty and had breakfast with Alice Cooper...the good ol days. Do you perform or just record? All of my
good stuff is on tape so not so great but cool to listen back...lots of distortion...
good choice of ax...tele is very versatile... ask Keith Richards aka Zombie...
Had to keep adding to my arsenal as I moved from genre and stage to stage...
glad I did as I have a nice range to enjoy and they stayed in nice condition.

Butterscotch blonde is nice. Mine is two colour sunburst. All my Fenders were
from Fullerton. My bandmate who sadly passed away (geezers) had a butterscotch
blonde No-Caster from 1951. He bought it after he gave Paul McCartney (seriously)
his home made electric back when he was with the Quarrymen. He quit to get a real
job as an accountant in Liverpool. He loved Stevie Ray Vaughn.

It's anyone's race as it's the long weekend...

My money's on the bottles to win, the bluejeans to place and the bandana to show...

BOTTLES MADE IT FIRST! I GET THE PRIZE...

I've been playing since my older brother let me try his guitar. I was 11. Don't
be down on yourself...that's how I started and that how I'll finish. I survived.
A lot of my friends went pro and got lost in a very dirty dark world. They didn't.

You are a great age. Good choice of music too. Sorry but the new stuff sounds
so depressing and sorry for itself. I can't Taylor Swift the night away.
