I was in high school when that record came out and had just gotten introduced to pot. My boyfriend and I had heavy duty stoned makeout sessions in his van to this album. Ah, memories...

What a great dad you are!

6. Man, reminds me of getting my first guitar, but it wasn't that nice.

I mowed lawns all summer to save $125 for a no-brand Sears Les Paul copy, cherry sunburst.

It was cheap, but it did the job. After a year of lessons & practice, when it got to the point where the low quality of the instrument was holding back my progress, I had saved enough to buy a black Ibanez Iceman. Yes, I was a KISS fan & wanted Paul Stanley's guitar. I still have it, but I modified it a bit. The biggest addition was a tremolo that I designed & built in high school, in my dad's workshop. I mounted the original tailpiece/bridge on a pivoting brass plate & cut out the body for springs. With the addition of a locking nut, the thing worked & stayed in tune.

7. How'd you get to be so freaking cool TEB?!

I'm trying to teach my son, but he has zero interest in playing acoustic. He wants to be Buckethead or John Five lol.

Thinking about getting him lessons on the electric, but I really think he needs to learn acoustic first..but what does mom know?!
