Uncle Sean Rocking
Proof, shocking proof I tell you, that middle aged IT workers can still rock when supplied with sufficient coffee and a bit of free time. The guitar is a 1962 fender jazzmaster reissue, as played by Television, Sonic Youth, Elvis Costello, Kurt Cobain, My Bloody Valentine, etc. It's an amazing instrument capable of delicate chime-like tones and roaring slabs of distorted beauty when pushed through the right amp (in this case a Vox AC15.) I realize this post borders on gear fetish, but the SOUND man, the SOUND... Painting to the right is an abstract work by Rebecca Ludlow, a local artist.

Rock on! How about a link to the sound?
Hmm, looks alot like your old room downstairs at 419 - are you sure that this pic isn't from 1977?
I had more hair back then, but admittedly, little else has changed. So much for growing up...
Still poundng the skins?
Let's get an MP3 link up for our listening enjoyment of facsimile thereof...
