When we got married I sold my Telecaster(my only guitar)dirt broke. My friend gave me a guitar he never played, he felt sorry for me. So when I was 40(ha 20yrs ago I started in earnest to play again--mostly focusing on playing(never singing) So getting a mac to do my work on that had a stereo input for sound I started singing again too! HA! History!

No- thanks for the interesting stuff to occupy our brains!
I could tell he was Down's, but it didn't matter for the enjoyment of the clip. Just universal fun! +1

Your Vids are great too- especially the live shows- you're very animated and obviously "moved" by sound...
