Glad to see you're still around even if you're not posting as much. /v/Guitar is one of my favorite music subs. I also discovered your "Better than Hendrix" list recently. I don't often run across decent music lists but yours is very well done.

Thanks! I try to make them informative and amusing to read.
It was actually cynical who kind of nudged me to get the list started. I bitched about Hendrix and he asked who was better. I also had to justify my answers. So, that began my list. I decided that I'd heal the old wounds of offense (I dislike when Hendrix is called the greatest guitar - he wasn't) and correct the record.
Truthfully, I expected I'd get bored writing them by now. I figured I might do 3 to 5 and call it good. But, I really like writing them.
I'm glad you enjoy reading them - and I'm glad other folks like them. I think I'd probably still write them even if nobody did. I did an article about the history of Washburn today, which was just a lark. I had a bit of free time before I had to go do a show in Greenville. We played to a pretty good crowd and we've all decided to stay in a hotel tonight, instead of making the long drive back to our respective homes.
It was a pretty great audience. The venue provided security, but we didn't need them for anything. They even helped load the truck and unload the truck. But, the audience was awesome. They were full of energy and eager to have a good time.
