I’m playing in the “opener” act at the P&H Parkfest celebration. The songs are rocked-up versions of:
Hello
Natural Woman
Stand By Your Man
Torn
Rocket Man
I want it to be that way
I’ll Be There
I believe I can fly
Never gonna give you up
Ain’t no sunshine
Livin’ La Vita Loca
I hope it’s funny!

I love my Tele. Not wild about the butterscotch finish though, but the only other choice was black with gold fleck. I replaced the bridge pickup with a DiMarzio Chopper T because the original pickup didn’t have enough oomph to drive the amp into a good crunch; just too clean.

It’s true, there’s a rocker underneath my corporate/grandfather exterior. I love using FL Studio to lay down tracks and record songs. Here’s an example: the Lenny Kravitz version of American Woman, as performed by Scott Thomason.
I did a lot of layering with this song. I’ve got tracks for drums, bass, 3 rhythm guitars, 2 solo guitars, four different vocal tracks, and the synthesizer at the end. It was a lot of fun.
If you like this, let me know and I will post some others.
