Chalk up show number four!

Wow!! My first two hour show!! It was a very nice surprise to be asked, due to popular demand, to do a two hour show for Flash 1512. How could I refuse?

I'll be honest, two hours is a bit of a marathon but it's quite an incredible ride and requires a significant amount of preparation. I flippin' love it :o)

I was asked the other day if I'm told what to play. The simple answer is no. I can play pretty much what I like so long as:

1. It was written between 1960 and 1990
2. It's a rock song
3. Or it's a blues song

That's the remit of Flash 1512 and in all honesty, I wouldn't have it any other way. That's the music I grew up with and made me want to pick up a guitar in the first place.

So, what did I play tonight?
  1. Tush - ZZ Top
