Who's this after Clapton? I like his tone.  Rod went to Augusta and brought Fail Nippleson some luck, apparently.


I wasn't paying very good attention this morning, so I didn't register what came after clapton.

I was rooting hard for Freddy yesterday, watching at home (just went Thursday/Friday, traveled Saturday).  Poor guy couldn't buy a put, except on 13.

"the bad news is, Bob Dole's gonna be the chaperone..."

Well, there are worse things than a chaperone who brings his own Viagra...

wonder if Rod's back to rebut the Clapton haters!
I'm back, but catching up after vacation leaves little time for posting.

Please regale us with Masters stories when you have time.

Damn 9:00 meetings.  Missed Ginger & eveything up to Nirvana.

Digging this Smithereens tune though.

VHM Smithereens. Another hook-friendly band. They were kind of in decline by this time, but I'm liking the way this sounds.
Let's get right to it.

Will do.  Have I ever told you how I mark my ball?  I draw the Blue Oyster Cult hooked cross symbol.  Your GD ball reminded me....

I'm not a big Alec Baldwin fan overall, but I'm glad he finally got an Oscar nom for The Cooler a couple years ago to make up for being snubbed for his scorching appearance in GGR.  It wasn't until a couple years later that the academy decided you only had to be onscreen for one scene to earn the nom for Performance in a Supporting Role.  Like William Hurt this past year.

anyone?


Me either. Gary Moore maybe? It doesn't have Satriani's tone, and it's a little too funky for Eric Johnson.


None of the above. Robben Ford and the Blue Line. I asked Dave.

Makes sense, good tone, but too much shredding for an old Geezer.

Or Beatrice Straight in Network -- and she won.  Mamet wrote that part (it doesn't appear in the orig play) especially for Baldwin.
