Here’s the link to the Buzzie Pics on Jan’s Psych Central Myspace page where she’s got pics of tons of great musicians. I have put up screenshots of the photos here for ease of use. If you want to print or purchase (heh heh) one please connect with Jan via MySpace. And JAN, thank you very much for these!

Watching a rerun of Wilco on Austin City Limits I got to see a very pretty Gibson 339 that Tweedy was playing. I longed for my Epiphone that I sold in some down moment. “Never sell a guitar.”
Gibson 339
I don’t know why I thought this would be an interesting post. But these are pretty focused guitars. And since I ain’t buying diddly squat during these low times I guess I figured that window shopping at Musician’s friend would be fun.
Here’s a long running desire. A Paul Reed Smith. The most balanced guitar made.
PRS - Paul Reed Smith
And finally the truly hybrid guitar by Godin. This one looks like a futuristic classical guitar but underneath are some electronics that translate guitar sounds into synthesizer sounds.
Godin hybrid Multiac.
And so with that I will confess to having 3 of the most wonderful guitars ever made.
- A ‘72 Les Paul Standard.
- A mid-90’s American Standard Stratocaster (clear maple finish).
- A Taylor 614 CE Acoustic.
I am still working up to the Taylor, and I assume I will be for the rest of my playin days.
Happy Dog Days of Summer Y’all.

The video looks kinda like something my son shot. See BUZZIE video below, but the ever hot Juliana Hatfield does justice to a great song from her latest album. “This Lonely Love” is one of a handful of standout tunes on her How to Walk Away disc. [Ah, now the video makes more sense, echoing the title of the cd rather than the song.] And does she look a lot like Kirsten Dunst or is it just me? She has a hell of a lot to say on her records, that’s for sure.
If you like that, there’s a blog where Juliana has posted about the music process and has given away more free downloadables.
Juliana Hatfield: By Fate, It’s Only Rock And Roll
And are a couple more videos: Don’t Rush me from her previous disc and and older one form the Juliann Hatfield 3 For the Birds.
Enjoy.

My son Jason shot some video of our show at the Orange County Fair. He wasn’t so focused on the show but was making some great comments along the way. I don’t know if he was going for an art piece, but he sure got one. This was shot on a Flip video camera and edited with iMovie. Click on the image below to watch the video on YouTube.
The Buzzie musicians are:
John McElhenney: vocals and guitar
Robbie Rist: guitar and vocals
Derrick Anderson: bass
Marc Joseph: drums
The song “Just Another Day” was written and performed by John McElhenney.
