    Of course you like it. That is old school to the bone. Hell, most the equipment looks like its right out of the fifties and sixties. Tube amps, gold top Gibson etc.

    These guys are playing the Widmere Brothers Oktoberfest at Pioneer Square on 9/29, there is a high chance of a drunken donkiez sighting.

    Anyone else use Google play music? I've had it for a few months now and love it. All access to every album I can think of, good streaming channels and as a bonus you get YouTube premium. It's worth the few bucks per month subscription. I like it better than Amazon and spotify, the YouTube premium is the tie breaker.

    ...my Brother still has his Les Paul gold top. (1958 I think)

    ...he replaced the original pickups with a set of DiMarzio pickups...and threw away the originals...big mistake.


    ...not sure what that Gibson would be worth with the factory original pickups. He also had an SG (Zappa was our musical hero back then) that he essentially gave away back in the 70s...another big mistake.

    My wife loves them. I grew up listening to alot of old school Jamaican reggae, so the Californian pop-reggae stuff is kinda hard for me to get into. They have some stuff I like tho. I'm sure you've heard of them already but if not, check out the bands Rebelution and Iration I'm sure you'll dig them.
