I've always been convinced that instruments pick up vibes from those who play them...
Alan, I have no doubt that this is true.[/quote]

Nice work, nice guitar !

Theo, I'm glad to hear you're loving the Lazy River!
I played that guitar on a recording of "
Cold Cold Heart".

I didn't realize that Rick... Thanx for the inside scoop ! Now that I know all them notes are in there, I'll have to do my best to find them !
One of the things I like best about your show is how all the backup tracks are done by you too. Lot of love and dedication !
Keep on keepin' on !

Thanks Theo!
A long time ago I tried a few karaoke tracks and tracks done by others, but they just weren't right for me.
So I always record all my own backups tracks.
It takes anywhere from a few hours to several days to do one, depending on how intricate it is.
Maybe many people don't know the difference - or care one way or the other.
But it makes all the difference to me.
And it's not like I have anything better to do . .
Here's a video from the RipTide gig yesterday afternoon:

These videos are worth watching just for the passers-by and the various antics on the beach and Boardwalk.
Actually, on Hollywood Beach it's now called "The Broadwalk" for some reason.
I know whatcher thinking, and you're not entirely wrong . .

I guess that's just not going to happen now.
Who would have thought that just two weeks ago you were happily playing on the beach?
Rick, I'll play your old Airline today. It must still have some of your vibes in it. I hope you can hear it.
