A Celebration.

It was 15 years ago this month I bought my Telecaster (pictured above.) I bought it in Memphis for $900. Gee. That's paid for itself.

Anyway, I'll be sharing my favorite memories of this guitar for the rest of the month.

April 2003: melting some faces with my fretwork, electricity turns off. Shrug, think fuck it, that's the show, they're making us stop. Go to the bar, drink a beer. Think "hey, I know that song..." Realize the power was back on, the rest of my band was playing. Casually strolled back onstage, played Summer of '69.

Sigh.
