Cool Guitars – Dean VMNT Rust In Peace

I’ve been playing guitar, on and off, since I was fairly young. If memory serves me correctly there was always an old acoustic in the house and I got my first electric guitar, a crappy strat copy in red with black fretboard, when I was around 10 or 11.

I can’t say that I play that well, although I used to be pretty good when I was in my late teens and played almost every day at school. Having recently got back into playing again I’ve become somewhat addicted to the idea of owning more guitars than I have space (or need) for. This is not a good thing.

This has got to be one of the coolest (well, in my eyes) guitars ever. Dave Mustiaine + guitar + Rust In Peace graphics = too much for me to handle

Sadly, at £1,000+ I’m not going to be able to justify buying it. Must resist buying the cheaper alternative

Slayer Shoes!

How could I resist these?

Saw them while I was in Japan

Vans slayer owens hi

and had to resist the ridiculously high prices there. Luckily they were readily available on my return and a pair were bought.

These ones, not so good…

Manowar interview – cringe factor: off the charts

Oh god, I can’t stand Manowar.

They have made a couple of amazing tunes but really they are the worst band ever in my books.

I don’t think I’ve cringed so much watching an interview in years. Remember that these guys must be nearing or in their 40s at this time…

How to find your tent at night?

The idea of sticking something up on your tent hoping to find it in the night, to me, sounds like an idiot’s game. I’ve been to many festivals in my time and have not lost one in the darkness yet (fingers crossed). Most I’ve been to have selections of morons with pirate flags or “Essex boy’s on toor” or something written on them.

Not for me.

Until

I’ll never get lost again, Just head for Eddie

Death by chocolate (brownie)

Highly recommended although, in this form, now discontinued, I give you perhaps the finest brownie I have ever had.

Best brownie in the world

I can’t recommend enough the butcher(?!) who made these – Jack O’Shea’s. They also make some of the most amazing baguettes known to man and, even though they’re sitting practically opposite Harrod’s, they’re cheap!
