OT: Jeff Healey

[Spudmurphy]

I read an interview with hin in Guitarist many years ago. He said he played that way because he had not "seen" how any body else played. Amazing talent. His version of Harrison's "While my guitar gently weeks" is breath taking.

Beej and Koogs...You guys are slipping I told the story at the open house!

See what happens when we attend one of your GREAT Parties! LOL.....

I went to school with Jeff-we were both in the guitar program at Humber College. He's a gifted player with a flair for the blues-(haven't heard him play coronet for a while though!)
Let us know how you liked the show.

Humber (Bummer colleg we used to call it)...Which campus, REXDALe...I went to Rexdale campus. I knew back when I was there they had quite the music program. Rick Emmet (Triumph) popped in there...it was impossible to navigate the halls that day!

Yes you are right, something about his parents also not knowing how they were held ...but he did start at 3 years old (blind at age 1 from some kind of eye cancer) which would make holding a guitar difficult!

Go an pay. You will be happy. I saw him in 98 and was amazing

There's still plenty of air left for my air guitar!

 

[koogie2k]

Dude....you are down to 140 left, then you will have to shut the f**k up until you get an EBMM....man, I am going to miss you! LOL....

 

[fogman]

Once I have 100 left, I'll be posting in short hand!
Very efficiently savour each post!

Your funny....I got a deal for you. Pardon the amount of beer I have consumed at this point as i will probably back out of the deal tomorrow....ehhehehehehe....

You could always hang on the forum by renting an actual EBMM from me. I am willing to sacrifice (for a small fee of course) one of my beloved JP-6's for you to use until you get one of your own.....that way, you can continue to post on the forum after your 2000th post in which case you will still not have your very own EBMM......how can you refuse an offer like that....unless I pull my "too much alcohol the night before" card and don't remember making this post....hehehehe....HAHAHAHAHAHA......

I have to print this post before you delete it!!!
Another generous offer from a great forumite! I'm deeply touched.
I couldn't accept that though. If anything happened I'd feel terrible. Not to mention fearing the dog and the hummer coming over me!!!
I've waited this long, so I'll survive.
Besides, I work really good under pressure!!!

 

[fogman]

Wait a minute!!!!
You're not trying to make me waste posts are you????

Nah, you do that pretty well all on your own...
