New guitar

I have been selling a lot of my old guitar stuff that I don’t use anymore, and I earlier this week, I bought a new Fender Strat:

This is a brand new guitar that is broken in and “road worn” at the factory. It looks 30 years old and I love it. Click the picture for a few more.

I am practicing with a band that Joe has been in for more than a year, and last night, we played in my second open mic night in something like 8 years. Their guitar player quit, the job may become mine sometime in the future. It’s fun, and I’m using it as an opportunity to get new gear that I will actually like to play.

This is a picture of a mob of people at Whitney Houston’s funeral. You can see a fluffhead sign at the bottom right.

Everyone else: Phish fans make signs because Phish will play songs requested on signs at the shows. The signs are everywhere all the time, as you can see.

Dad, I’m going to go see Savoy Brown

I wouldn’t have any idea who this band was if it weren’t for your 8-track collection. Savoy Brown’s “Lookin’ In” was my favorite tape out of all the ones that were in our basement, and I still listen to them a lot today.

Here’s a playlist I put together sometime last year: http://grooveshark.com/#!/playlist/Savoy+Brown/60906447

Anyways, they just released a new album and are playing 3 shows across the US to promote it. One of them happens to be 2 hours away in Jim Thorpe, PA on Saturday, February 18th, and I am definitely going. What do you think?

Another vacation option

Just kidding, look at what I found. It starts on the first kick but is only firing on one cylinder. I pulled the carbs around noon today and found a hole in one of the rubber vacuum diaphragms. There is a new one of those on the way thanks to eBay. This is a 76 CJ360T, the last year before Honda went to disc brakes in the front.

Total loss

The scooter is now my only vehicle! The adjuster who came out today for another estimate was also a notary, so I don’t own this car anymore despite it sitting outside waiting for a tow truck. I’m so glad this was finally taken care of, and I’m knee deep in car shopping.
