Simone Biles has the Bears gear now.

 LMAO  !!!!!!

 VH was an innovator on the guitar. Back in the 80's /90's everybody wanted to play like him. From the kid in his room to the bands in the garage. The rival metal bands to the glamor hair bands everyone one of them tried to copy him. Because he set the bar on guitar playing.   Randy Rhoads was probably the closest to him. But, both his life and career were tragically cut short.


 C'mon man!! nobody played like that!
     

I thought Tom Morello was pretty awesome... I was at Grant Park one night he played there with Rage Against the Machine on a hot August night years ago.  LOL, I thought we were gonna die in the crowd that night that kept pressing forward.  They stopped the concert 3 times that night due to worry about people getting crushed by the crowd.  That was at a Lollapalooza... I used to go every year, but that was years ago.  I also like blues.  I've been to hear Buddy Guy live a number of times.  Two from the past would be Neil Young and George Harrison.  I never heard Harrison live though.  

I'm a woodworker.  My son plays guitar and when he was young we got an idea to make a custom guitar for him.  we built this one:



A few years later we got a crazier idea for a Flying V guitar.  I had some reclaimed old-growth hard maple (reclaimed from an old shipwreck on Lake Michigan).  That turned out to be a pretty awesome guitar.  It looks like a solid body guitar but it is actually a hollow body... sounds great:



LOL, notice his Bears t-shirt in this old pic.  

One non-guitar blues performer I liked was Pinetop Perkins.  He was a guitarist until he got into a knife fight with a gal and had permannt tendon damage to his arm... so he became the best blues piano player ever.  I did hear him live before he passed away in 2011.

LOL... I think this thread got off topic a bit
