My favorite guitar set up is my Telecaster (with Quarter Pound pickups) plugged into my tweed Fender Blues jr
If I have a pedal it’s Ibanez Tube Screamer. Very little tinkering required to get a good sound
What’s yours?
I love the drummer on this tune from The Honeycombs

A cut from my Rockabilly & Booze album.
This is “Might’ve Been”

Throwback Thursday pic - maybe going back 10 years. Pinch hitting on lead guitar with the Bob Wire Trio. Green Strat as reliable as can be

The FBI released this sketch of the man known as The Unabomber this week.
And authorities immediately issued an arrest warrant for Weird Al Yankovic.
Very happy to receive my vinyl single from The Stray Cats. Two incredible, energetic and unmistakably Stray Cats tracks. The baby blue vinyl is off the charts cool!

I’m now in need of an ass transplant after 4 flights in 4 days on American Airlines. Why do their seats feel like sitting on a lumpy pile of dirty towels?
Flying is expensive AA, put a few bucks towards new seat cushions 🙄
A nice looking suit with big dumb white sneakers will never look good, but I suppose these old athletes on pregame shows have to wear them due to bad knees, and sore feet. 🤷🏼♂️
Had to try an “artisnal donut while visiting NYC, and although pretty enough, no big whoop to the tastebuds.
The bagels are next level good though 🙂
Ha 😂😂😂 Norm was the best
In Lexington, North Carolina, the principal of an elementary school has been harshly criticized for a controversial decision to suspend a first grader who kissed a girl in class - on grounds of sexual harassment.
Now while this may sound like an overreaction, it should be noted that, uh, THIS is the first grader.
