I have a ticket to see both of these guys in concert on Saturday.
Enjoy the weekend everyone.
that's how whe is able to use the whammy so much without resorting to a Floyd Rose
Jeff Beck just turned 72 last week, and Buddy Guy turns 80 tomorrow. And both can still play like there's no tomorrow....!
Locking tuners probably also help. Can't say for sure if the guitar Beck plays has them, but his signature model has Fender/Shaller locking tuners.
Jeff Beck is badass I am seriously jealous
my first concert. it was very cool and that dude could play.
I saw Buddy Guy 12 years ago and it is still one of my favorite concert experiences. Interesting to be around a man older than the hills who is still far far cooler than I will ever be.
Have a great time!
The upside is that I have the day off.
The downside is that I have the day off because of the numerous preparations that still need to be made for the dual birthday party for my kids (their birthdays are five weeks apart, so we hold one big party in the middle), so I'll be at Meijer and about a dozen other places today.
Then, of course, tomorrow I have to cough up money for a lot of pizza that I technically shouldn't be eating on this low-sodium diet they still would rather I adhere to.
Then there's hauling everyone to the Metropark pool....
Why did I take this day off now? It seems like work.
sounds like it's going to be a rough day. Have one of these on me
It's the kind of day that is a pain in the neck at the time, and you miss more than you expected when the kids go off to college. Your children are a Nature provided excuse to go see animated movies and have fun at water parks without looking like a perv.
We're going through a corporate "restructuring", also known as mass firings, and while my job is safe for now they're changing my management structure.
I have the best boss I've ever had, and now I have to report to someone (newly hired) that I've never met. And they might be moving my office.
I quit drinking a few months ago to lose some weight, but I'm pretty sure I'll be drunk by 2pm today.
Sorry to hear about the restructuring ... you're a banker right? Isn't that sort of common I seem to always read about banks moving checkers around on the board. Glad to hear you didn't lose your job.
Sucks that you have to retrain a new boss...newbie to boot!
But they're usually just moving the chess pieces around the board and I've been lucky to avoid any major changes over the past decade.
This time is different. The shareholders are pissed off that we're not making more money (and they should be, our CEO is a dickbag that should have retired 5 years ago), so they're doing some serious cost cutting.
I missed out on a promotion last year, and while I was pissed at the time, I'm glad I didn't get it now. Those guys are fucked.
I would look for something more stable not sure what you've got invested in that job. I went through the layoff process in 2009 and turned my back on large corporations forever because of it.
After taking the blue pill I've found corporate koolaid doesn't taste good and I hate how the C** offices view people as cordwood.
If everything goes to plan I should be out of here for good in 18-24 months.
but the hours are tough, right?
When you're trying to raise kids. And I don't look nearly as good in a speedo and bowtie as I used to.
you're the guy on the left, no doubt. but that doesn't look like banker hair.

Yeah, was waiting for that LOL.
That sounds like a perfect weekend to me. Streaming some old Michigan games via YouTube might be fun!
tomorrow for the International Cup match. Its not real football, but getting into AA and being in the Big House is better than staying home and reading about football Saturday. Hoping to see some UM greats that are rumored to be in town for the Nike gear unveiling. I'm pumped!
Here's some classic Scarlett.
Scarlett is a peach. Like when you eat a peach that is so ripe you can push your thumb through the skin. The juice runs down your chin and drips onto your chest, and the place in between your fingers gets so sticky you have trouble separating them.
The next day, even after you wash your hands, you can still smell the sweet juice on your skin and, if no one is watching, you lick your fingers and the memory of that sweet fruit on your tongue floods back. Scarlett is like that.
Why would you wash your hands?
I ripped that off from someone on Fark a long time ago. I should change it up a bit.
Banker, plagerist and butt-man....my kinda guy!

Shave and get a haircut. Most banks want their customer facing employees to look as clean-cut as possible. Wear your best suit and shine your shoes.
Personal Banker is all about relationships, especially with wealthy clients, so if you're a good talker/bullshitter that will go a long way. Try not to be too stiff.
