Absolutely one of my favorites. It was a damn sad night he died. The way it played out was tough. RIP SRay.  "Practice like you want to play in the game" | |||

Odd similarities… “On August 27, 1990, Vaughan and four others were killed in a helicopter crash in East Troy, Wisconsin, after performing with Double Trouble at Alpine Valley Music Theatre.” https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stevie_Ray_Vaughan “On February 3, 1959, American rock and roll musicians Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens, and "The Big Bopper" J. P. Richardson were all killed in a plane crash near Clear Lake, Iowa, together with pilot Roger Peterson.” https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wik...e_Day_the_Music_Died Serious about crackers | |||

Totally agree. "Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible." -- Justice Janice Rogers Brown "The United States government is the largest criminal enterprise on earth." -rduckwor | |||

One of my favorites, as well. In another video of this song, I counted at least 4 picks he went through, just on this song. This space intentionally left blank. | |||

just before the wife and I started dating I had another couple invite me to a show, we sat behind a friend and her husband, (no idea they would be there) SRV at the Richmond Mosque, one of the most acoustically perfect venues out there, and a fantastic show, wife and i are big fans, his version of Voodoo Chile that night was fantastic, https://chandlersfirearms.com/chesterfield-armament/ | |||

This is my favorite. There are many others that he recorded or played live that demonstrated his incredible talent better, but I like this one. Life Without You _______________________________________________________ despite them | |||

Stevie Ray will always be special to me. I waited a long time to see him and the only time he came close was an amazing opportunity when he played our county fair. My drummer was supposed to go with me and had to back out last minute. Long story short due to some people I knew I ended up on the 'other' side of the barricade near the stage to help any injured or assure no one crossed. SRV was less than 3' over my head more than a few times. The next night tragedy struck and he was gone... Anyway, here is a great old interview Pronoun: His Royal Highness and benevolent Majesty of all he surveys 343 - Never Forget Its better to be Pavlov's dog than Schrodinger's cat There are three types of mistakes; Those you learn from, those you suffer from, and those you don't survive. | |||

It doesn't take a music expert or guitar geek to recognize how off-the-charts masterful it is to break a string during a solo and change guitars w/o missing a single beat or note. Mad respect to SRV's guitar tech too, Rene Martinez. | |||

One of my favorites of his. SIGforum: For all your needs! Imagine our influence if every gun owner in America was an NRA member! Click the box>>>  | |||

One of the best concerts I ever swent to. The Fabulous Thunderbirds opened up for him. At the end the Brothers played a few songs. "Blessed is he who when facing his own demise, thinks only of his front sight.” Malo periculosam, libertatem quam quietam servitutem Montani Semper Liberi | |||

I met him in the spring of 1990. I'm not normally a star struck person, but I remember telling myself to be cool and not say anything stupid. We wound up having a cup of coffee and talking about our grandmother's. Don't ask me why but that's where the conversation wandered to. I grew up 10 miles from him, thought I was going to have a lot more time to see him in concert... I have a few SIGs. | |||

Saw him live. You ain't wrong. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ "Yidn, shreibt un fershreibt" "The Nazis entered this war under the rather childish delusion that they were going to bomb everyone else, and nobody was going to bomb them. At Rotterdam, London, Warsaw and half a hundred other places, they put their rather naive theory into operation. They sowed the wind, and now they are going to reap the whirlwind." -Bomber Harris | |||
