A sweet find

I went to an antique store the other day and found this treasure: a tool box full of 8 track tapes. No, I do not own a working 8-track player, but heck, they're still cool to have! This is the most eclectic collection I have ever seen: Willie Nelson, polka compilations, cocktail piano pieces, the "Deliverance" soundtrack, Jackson 5, Kiss' "Love Gun," and more. Good stuff!

My new toy

A vintage (most likely from the early '70s) OSCILLOSCOPE!!!

What I'm listening to today:

"Modern Day Cowboy" by Tesla


Thunder rolls and the lightning bolts come crashin' to the ground

Did You Know?

A little rock trivia for ya...

Aynsley Dunbar

He's done it all and has played with every awesome group and musician imaginable (including Journey, Whitesnake, Frank Zappa, David Bowie, Jeff Beck)! Aynsley Dunbar is hands-down one of the greatest drummers ever.
