You're gonna be happy with that Tele. Glad you weren't derailed by temptation.

I've read (and watched) a lot of Jeff Tweedy interviews. Some of the quotes in the first one seem like they're either made up or paraphrased.

^^Great shot!

REDD KROSS This is a bucket list show for me. I didn't think I'd ever get to see them.

Thanks for that. Nels' perspective on things is always interesting.

My best $1 bin scores are probably Miles Davis Get Up With It and Ornette Coleman Twins. LPs, not cd.

The Seeds are the poor man's 13th Floor Elevators Hampton Grease Band is the poor man's Zappa/Beefheart

Yeah, this guy is astonishing. I saw him with Mclaughlin, too. Must've been 1990, or so. Very unorthodox playing style. I had forgotten about him, but I'll keep an eye out for thigns he plays on.

Well, hell. How else could Mike Campbell have afforded to buy a 1959 Les Paul that "cost more than his house"? http://www.tompetty.com/news/title/imike-campbell-the-guitarsi-chapter-11-begging-to-be-played-the-1959-gibson-les-paul

Mike Watt is putting out a 45 on RSD with Nels.

Built to Spill probably is. Wild Flag.

I saw him play two 2x4s on a floor once at an ICP Orchestra concert. It was incredible. Youtube has a video of him playing a drumset made of cheese.

I don't know if Rubber Band had any hits, but yeah, he had hits with James Brown, too.

Kirk Cameron.

Suites did, but he called him Edward.

I think he has a signature model Strat. Gibson has also made some Clapton signature models, if I'm not mistaken. I know he sold lots of guitars from his collection, but I'll bet he still has some of his old ones at home that he doesn't take on the road.

'94, wow. I must've overlooked the video you posted. I'm surprised it was that long ago. I thought I had seen some photos of him in a guitar magazine playing the red 335 from a recent tour, but I could be mistaken.

I meant to put Jim Campilongo on my list.

Yeah, I was pretty disappointed that he didn't use a Gibson for the Cream reunion shows.

Looks like it was the From the Cradle tour.

Someone made a point earlier about how it wasn't the Strat, but the chorus effects he was using. Surely that's a major factor. Clapton did sound good on the Strat for a few albums (although VERY different than his sound on Gibsons), but something started changing for the worse around the time right after Slowhand.
