It isn't any style of EC model - it doesn't have a truss rod (another male disease?) bullet on the headstock and the "Stratocaster" label is too big for EC. Appears to be a late 60's - 1970 model or some reissue of that era.

(Sorry, I digress, but speaking of America, I hope they make somebody sing Horse with No Name just to piss that Sid F'er off).<BR/><BR/>But I did read the blog and the song titles drew me in for Tuesday.<BR/><BR/>Ty - Actually caught only about the last 30 seconds, but as much as I love the Stones, what I saw didn't inspire me to rewind the tape.<BR/><BR/>JD - is a pud. Wasn't the choir supposed to be in on only 2 songs? I think he forgot the part about Elvis needing boats.<BR/><BR/>Marty - Listening to Floyd is like a religious experience, so there was great potential to piss me off. Instead, he was the only one who added any value to the song with which he was blessed. Does Beers really think Rog wished Syd (not you, Sid) was there?<BR/><BR/>St. Jordis - What was she doing with Brian Jones's guitar?<BR/><BR/>MiG - The music made me slam dance in the kitchen, but since there wasn't a bouffant-topped lard ass to stop my momentum and there are 5 doorways, I tumbled through one of back into the family room. After all that, I really can't comment on his performance, but I'm not about to rewind the tape to see it.<BR/><BR/>Suzie - Have any of the fawning idiots praising her performance actually listened to the original? I'll grant that it wasn't her fault that they made the "most difficult song to sing and play in rock n roll" much easier by cutting half the song out, but I agree with Dalebud that she didn't come close to hitting the notes and with mack that the big production (and the big dramatic buildup) was more responsible for its impact than she was. Any of the other 5 could have done just as well (and some better) with this song.<BR/><BR/>Don't think I care to watch/listen to INXS songs tonight. But I'll keep reading and maybe the real songs next week (please, Horse with No Name) will lure me in again.<BR/><BR/>NEWSFLASH - this just in: Steve Dahl is predicting that INXS will choose Marty.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14502119.post-1125530508068971192005-08-31T18:21:00.000-05:002005-08-31T18:21:00.000-05:00One of the best moments of Marty's life?

Glad he didn't do the unison la-la's with the guitar like Dave Gilmore does. For Moist: Raph's axe wasn't a Custom Clapton as that's just in black or blue. <BR/>Suzie's performance on BoRhap wasn't nearly as good as the musician's - she didn't even try to hit the notes and what about "Is this the real life..."<BR/>Jordis almost looked like she was trying to hide behind that guitar. She sounded great and her eyes looked awesome. Kind of reminded me of Joan Jett in "Crimson & Clover."<BR/>Think JD and his every-performance pogoing & airpunching has to go. If you look closely the only ones into his performances are the two-deep ring of misguided chicks who like this "badboy."Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14502119.post-1125519474816393502005-08-31T15:17:00.000-05:002005-08-31T15:17:00.000-05:00Does anyone know if they show The Song Remain The ...Does anyone know if they show The Song Remain The Same as the midnight movie anywhere in SoCal?????Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14502119.post-1125508552729119972005-08-31T12:15:00.000-05:002005-08-31T12:15:00.000-05:00Does anybody remember laughta?Does anybody remember laughta?Moist Rubhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11761155132969976525noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14502119.post-1125508024191151222005-08-31T12:07:00.000-05:002005-08-31T12:07:00.000-05:00Agree with Mack's comment on Imagine Knocking on t...Agree with Mack's comment on Imagine Knocking on the Door.....<BR/>however, does anyone remember Jordis throwing down a pretty rockin' Baba O'Reilly in week one?Sidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08269958368204164974noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14502119.post-1125503897329119592005-08-31T10:58:00.000-05:002005-08-31T10:58:00.000-05:00It's almost easy if you try...It's almost easy if you try...Sidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08269958368204164974noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14502119.post-1125500438977502802005-08-31T10:00:00.000-05:002005-08-31T10:00:00.000-05:00Imagine there's no Rock Star, it isn't hard to do....Imagine there's no Rock Star, it isn't hard to do.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14502119.post-1125494986988935612005-08-31T08:29:00.000-05:002005-08-31T08:29:00.000-05:00Mack, you seem to spend a lot of time never thinki...Mack, you seem to spend a lot of time never thinking.Moist Rubhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11761155132969976525noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14502119.post-1125493187733004282005-08-31T07:59:00.000-05:002005-08-31T07:59:00.000-05:00Well said, Mack.

You're probably too emotionally involved as his limo driver.<BR/>It's seems like he keeps trying to push the limits, but they seem to keep pushing back harder. He truly does appear to be learning and growing as a result of the process, but it's tough to get a read on him. He does seem even more demure than usual, although in retrospect, maybe part of that was the emotion of the song. I just hope everything turns out in the best interest of everyone involved, and by everyone, I mean Marty.Sidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08269958368204164974noreply@blogger.com
