I went to the Philly show last night and of course it was sweet. His stomps on his Fuzz Factory pedal teases just enough to imagine the Gibson acoustic being a cranked gold top. He autographed the cream-colored pick guard from my 1984 ivory Les Paul Studio. Above his J Hancock he wrote "WANKIN4EVER." Thank you very much J. Your playing style and songwriting really grab my heart. Trust me, it’s not all wanking, but can be very tasteful, sophisticated and evocative of intense emotion. I bought the LP new in 1985 for $500 by walking in with cash, got the nice HSC included and paid no tax. It plays like a dream and I have been, and will forever be, wanking the motherfucking shit out of it.
