In a little podunk bar here in Tucson I saw this sitting on a stage.

It was being played by some guy that needed a hair cut worse than me. Cover for this show was $10!

He was a decent picker and really nice person when I talked to him. I think I have a picture of him some where. Let me see if I can find it.
By decent I mean OMG Fantastic!

Yeah he is the man.
I never really wanted an AL before I saw the BFR pinkburst. But after seeing and hearing this one played I think it is just about the coolest guitar ever.

What a super great show this was!
$10
Less than 40 people in the house. I just sat my happy fanny down in front of the stage and was treated to some mighty fine picking and a grinning. (That was me on the grinning side)

Albert Lee Is Fantastic!

Yeah, looks like a guy just trying to make his mark in the music business. You never know, maybe one day he'll catch his big break and people will know who he is. He may even get his own signature model some day! ;)

Yes my brethren - Even NorM has seen the light :)

NorM - You want the AL, You need the AL - You will own the AL - It is your DENSITY (A little rocket science humor)


Oh - and 1 minor edit

You are a ridiculously lucky man. I had no idea he was in the states. Does anyone privy to his travels know of any more US dates?
