Been listening to alot of Steel Panther lately, and Stevie Wonders greatest hits. Oh, and the other half moaning that my pedals and guitars are taking over the house!

I grew up with my dad listening to Eric Clapton, Gary Moore, etc, and my sister listening to Def Leppard, Motley Crue, Guns N Roses, etc and Steel Panther take me back to those days of growing up and not having a care in the world. They also did the best concert I've ever been to and ruined every concert I'm ever going to goto (I seem to goto quite a lot).

I'm trying to learn a few songs at the moment, including Death To all But Metal, and Fat Girl, both by steel panther so been listing to them loads. Although, the solos in DTABM are a bit out of my league at the moment :(

Here are the videos of the songs that I'm trying to learn at the moment:

Birds and Arrows (from North Carolina). Great folk rock/indie/harmony duo.

Vintage Rez, nice.  Here's a story of the good being wasted on the young - I saw Glenn Kaiser put on a two hour solo set with just a dobro and a swiss army knife in a club of 40 people back in the day, only I was too much of a metalhead at the time to truly appreciate how phenomenal a performance it was.  And twenty years later, still pretty much a metalhead, go figure.
The only known cure in the world for GAS is death.  That's my story, and I'm sticking to it.

Been revisiting a bunch of early King's X, Big Sugar, and the last two Max Webster albums.  I get a Gamma jones on from time to time as well.  I'm an old fart, what can I say.

How loud is too loud?  What?

Glenn Kaiser's sustain in that song makes my skin tingle.

Just heard the first track off the new Doug Pinnick/Eric Gales project.  Going to be a killer album.

I remember when Eric Gales was a 12 yo hendrix prodigy on the local news.  He should have been huge.  HUGE!  But you must have the song people can't get out of their head.  Eric Gales never scored that.  sucks.
shout out for King's X.  my favorite band I always forget about.

I don't enjoy Coldplay's last two albums.  I still play the first two albums in the car.  Love them. Is it me or is it them? :D

Coldplay may be like U2.  If someone told me my two favorite U2 albums would be recorded in the 2000's I would not have believed them.  How to Dismantle and All that you can't leave behind are amazing.  I did not appreciate the Edge until I was older.  A real artiste.  The guy from Coldplay sounds pretty good without stomping on the songs.

I loved this while looking up something.

Back on topic: I was listening to "Emotions in Motion" by billy squire tonight white wiring a tele for a friend.  Everybody Wants You was an awesome song.  I saw him headline and Def Leppard opened for him before Pyromania was so huge.  I was 12 and was snuck out by my cool cousin.  I bought his ticket and got to sit between two high school girls with boobs in the backseat for the 2 hour drive to Nashville. 
I heard a DJ once say Billy Squire released the two best Led Zeppelin albums of the 80's.
If that is true then Total Eclipse of the Heart was the best Rod Stewart son of the last 34/35 years.
