My son Adam has a band at University I think there rather good but obviously I'm somewhat biased so some honest opinions would be most welcome.

There's a also a Video on the page page that they made themselves and the record company is one they are setting up themselves. Adams the one with a hat & a Strat

good stuff....i really enjoyed the music and the video! There is definetly some talent there!

BTW....in think your description of your son would make a great band name or album title "a hat & a Strat"

Excellent sound. I down loaded it so I can hear it often. I did not see a video. I will go back and try again.

Not "a resonator & an alligator"?

 

[duhvoodooman]

Got mine! "Old & fat, and own a Strat"....

 

[warren0728]

Not "a resonator & an alligator"?

that one fits too!

1. I went to the University of Florida (The Florida Gators)

2. There is a lake a couple of miles from my house that is known to have the highest number of alligators per mile of shoreline than any in the nation.

Warren, so have you seen any gators in the "wild" ? I think they are rather scary, but I have only seen them on the "Crocodile Hunter" TV show

I know that in Florida gator guts are pretty common on the highways. You can also have one hanging out in your back yard with no warning. They aren't very nice guests. They use all the toilet paper then leave.

I bet they prefer the grater paper we discussed earlier.

Spudman, you've just described Florida's version of the racoon, except with much bigger teeth!

 

[Spudman]

Or the armadillo factor across the rest of the south.

there is a restaurant/fish camp/biker bar on the lake i was talking about. You can usually see wild gators from there.

ANOTHER TIME...I was doing a photoshoot one early morning on a piece of property on a lake that was to be developed. They wanted some nice sunrise shots of the lake and shoreline. While i was set up waiting for the perfect light i noticed a gator about 30 yards out in the water. As i waited for the light he kept getting closer and closer (keep in mind i am out in the middle of nowhere by myself!) He got about 10 yards from the shore and then started swimming to my left and then disappeared. I was getting a little nervous because i thought the gator was coming up on land to check me out. By this time i had all the shots i needed (including a couple of the gator) and decided to get out of there. I was about 200 yards from my car and the whole treck back i had my tripod at the ready to smack him if he game at me. Believe it or not over short distances gators are VERY fast so trying to run away wouldn't work.

That's the only time i've seen a gator and gotten spooked.

I'll look for the picture of him....it actually was a nice shot!

Those gators are terrible about having their pictures taken. Pull out a camera and the swarm towards it. They are worse than guitar players and are total posers. Don't let them play your axe either...they never wash their hands.

here's the pic i was talking about....this one of course is small and cropped....if you want to see the full size non-cropped version click here.

You are a very forgiving parent for letting your son get all funked up like that. LOL
That is some pretty groovy stuff. I do a lot of the very same style when I jam with my friends. It's such fun to play and a lot of energy and tension can be put into the music.
Very nice indeed. I'd be proud of that boy. I imagine the apple hasn't fallen too far from the tree?

 

[Tone2TheBone]

Slowhand - Hey I like! Cool groove and sound. *thumbs up* I was just gettin' into the Jumbo Theme Tune when it abruptly ended! Tell your son well done.
