    OK, this ones gonna get crazy. Bring beer, bring a trampoline, but most of all, bring the crazy questions. Feel free to ask me anything....childhood, gear, wacky stories, hypothetical questions, California fruitcake questions.....anything.

    how (if at all) has your relationship with anna informed your opinion of the immigration issue? what was your opinion/position on that issue before meeting her? what is it now?

    Is it not the glory of the people of America that, whilst they have paid a decent regard to the opinions of former times and other nations, they have not suffered a blind veneration for antiquity, for custom, or for names, to overrule the suggestions of their own good sense, the knowledge of their own situation, and the lessons of their own experience?" - James Madison - Federalist #14

    How's it going with your fiancee?

    Which one amp and one guitar that you currently own would you keep, if you needed to sell it all off? I know my answer (I know what amp of yours and guitar of yours I'd keep).

    The band I was in during the 90's was The Kinship, a popular west coast bluesrock band similar to Black Crowes. We were having meetings with Virgin, MCA, and Interscope, but the offers were so unfair and ridiculous, that our attorney tried to get a better deal. I think he may have screwed up a few times. Bill Hamm, who made ZZ Top who they were sent his son to all our showcases, and almost inked us to MCA. I regret not doing everything in my power to sway him into getting us on a label. Too much was out of my control.

    [edit] Oh....gear deals!....If I can't financially afford a good deal on something worth more, I don't cry about it. I have enough to keep me satisfied. It's usually stuff like old Marshalls, Fenders, and boutique amps that I could grab cheap, but just let it slide instead. If it's a supreme score, I'll find a way to get the money.

    Living in California since I was 10, I've always been around Latinos, and never had any problem with anyone. However, like most Americans, I understand the reality that the border has to be secured to avoid a literal invasion, because that's exactly what would happen, and it would cause a severe strain on our country's resources.

    I met my fiance 5 years ago, after she'd fled Honduras for a better life here, to join some of her family members who'd also emigrated here. By not just "knowing" Latinos, but actually being part of their family gatherings as "the gringo" I learned a lot about their plight, and the situation they came from.
    I also went to Honduras, and was thrown right into their natural environment, as deep as any white guy could ever go. My perspective has changed greatly, and I have a very deep understanding of the dynamics of their situations, the terrible immigration policy we have, and also the reality of how this country will change over the next 50 years as a result of their emigration.

    Honestly, even American Latinos know that our country can't support a heavy influx of immigrants, and have a similar stance on the issue. We just all wish for a more standardized immigration process, which allows good people to come here, but also deports the criminals and gangs we don't want here.

    How many licks does it take to get to the center of a tootsie pop?

    No, seriously....... If you could have any guitar in the world what would it be?

    This includes famous people guitars, not just something you could order.

    Thanks for passing the Well over to me.
    Nevada. A suburb of Vegas would be my choice.
    I'd love to be a property and business owner in Central America, like Honduras or Costa Rica. Americans and Europeans are buying it up fast, because it's cheap and has great growth potential. With some money, you can live nice down there!

    The amp part is easy. I never plan to sell my Bogner Ecstasy or the 2 cabs...the 412 and 212. I love all my guitars, but the crown jewels are the 35th Anniversary Gibson LP Custom Black Beauty 3 pickup and the 2007 ES-335. I also love strats, but those are all cheap and replaceable.

    SRV's #1, of course. Or Jimmy Page's 59 LP, which he bought from Joe Walsh in the 70's.

    Where in Torrance do your parents live?

    Might need to drive over and find out some real "Joe Dirt."

    Did it go well with your fiancee's family when that hurricane was around Honduras? I don't think I ever got to know how things went there after the hit.

    What was your least favorite, most disappointing, suckiest job?

    What's the most out-of-character thing you've done? Something you look back on and say, "Why the hell'd I do that?!?"

    Every party so hard you wake up and you don't know where you are or how you got there?
