He had an SG with one of those weird SG/Les Paul whammy systems, a Les Paul that there were only 1000 made and an SG bass that was left handed but converted to right handed. Pretty awesome. He also had this really sweet old Fender amp. He lent me a Django cd and a Roy Buchanan cd. Pretty sweet.

Wow, I really like this one. Although it does kinda bug me, because it reminds me of playing an RPG and this is the part after I just defeated a boss and I have to keep pressing the button to get through a lot of boring words between characters. And I don't even play that many RPGs!

But there's also a very wintery quality about it as well. So those are two themes you should concentrate on: post-victory exposition, and winter.

It kinda is.

We had an inter-res Ball type thing. I was looking very Nick Cave in my tailored (yea damm straight, tailored) brown suit. It was a nice affair with a decent jazz band playing. It was an open bar. The mixture of red wine and steinlager turned out to be a bit iffy in the old stomach. I got back to my room (with a lovely lady, booyah) and lit up a cigarette, took 2 drags and then BLAM! I barfed on my guitar, amp, floor and bed. The lovely lady didn't appreciate this and left. I curled up on my bed and went to sleep.

It's slightly rock n' roll, but mostly not.
