Second question...what the hell guitar is Ricky Skaggs playing?

[dbt]

1. Country musicians have been kickin' it since before electricity!

Johnny Cash coulda taught Led Zeppelin a thing or three about wrecking hotel rooms.

The guitar that Skaggs is playing could be a Tacoma; they've been known to do strange things with the soundhole.

2. Yeah, with K-Y jelly.

6. Johnny used to like to tell the story about...

...traveling between gigs in a station wagon with Carl Perkins & The Tennessee Three, and one morning they woke up with the ass-end of the car sticking in the bottom of a ditch and the front end pointing straight up in the air. No one in the car remembered how they got there.

:rofl:

I'm convinced that even though the CLASSIC song "Six Days On The Road" is a "trucker's anthem," it was also written for road warriors like Johnny:

Well, I pulled out of Pittsburgh,
Rollin' down the Eastern Seaboard.
I've got my diesel wound up,
And she's running like never before.
There's a speed zone ahead, all right,
I don't see a cop in sight.
Six days on the road and I'm gonna make it home tonight.

I got ten forward gears,
And a Georgia overdrive.
I'm taking little white pills,
And my eyes are open wide.
I just passed a 'Jimmy' and a 'White':
I've been passin' everything in sight.
Six days on the road and I'm gonna make it home tonight.
