I play in my house quite a bit. It is open to anyone who wants to see the show. There is always plenty of food, drink, and fun. Come along :)
J.J. Cale is the reason I play guitar. J.J. -- if you ever want a beer or a barbecue or a nice front porch to record a song, I've got just the right place. Others: Cowboy Junkies, Motorhead, Chris Isaak, etc. It gets kind of strange around here....
The Les Paul Custom is the centerpiece of my home. The Epiphone acoustic is the best sound this side of $2500. And I've got a bunch of other stuff detailed on the site. Check it out if you're interested, or drop me a line: I love talking about recording!
