Hendrix, Clapton, uh...Lil' Wayne

Lesson: Owning a guitar makes you proficient at...owning a guitar. Not playing one.

Oh, Weezy.
This is the kind of stuff you do in the basement where the only people that can hear you are either rats or cockroaches...



I bought my first guitar from one of my high school teachers for $100. He only played it during Sunday morning services at church; Assembles of God. So a few hymns, maybe a Michael W. Smith cover or two. Honestly, I just wanted to be a black Pete Townshend (Pete probably just wanted to be a white Chuck Berry). I remember plugging my guitar into the amp for the very first time and expecting a 9 minute solo, but ended up playing something that sounded a lot like Weezy's Guitar Hero-esque attempt.
In fact, it might actually be the same song.

Advice: You should see this show.
