I realize it's an old thread, but...I stream Pandora and made an Allman Bros. station and they pick it out for me!! Live Clapton, BB, Taj Mahal,Levon Helm, and they throw a Johnny Cash in there sometimes.

Oh hell yes!
I've been playing guitar for 15 years. (Im 23 now)
Raised on the Blues and classic rock.
Hendrix is who made me want to play when I was a kid. Now I love everything from classical, jazz fusion, to metal and prog.
One of my favorite albums is Allman Brothers Live at the Fillmore East. AMAZING!!!
Im glad I got all my gear when I was younger, cause now I spend all my money on motherfucking plants!!!
I've got a 1980's brown grill-cloth marshall JCM-800 with a boost circuit added...
but my baby is my Fender 60th anniversary american deluxe, Ash strat... aged cherry sunburst. Damn, she's a hottie!
 
Very nice. I might of added some slight chordal variation in the guitar part especially during the intro. It get's repetitive. Easy to fix. Nice song.

you could be confused. this is blues...

notice how the instruments take a life of their own?
this is not blues

singing about sad or dark things doesnt make it blues. if thats the case n sync, backstreet boys, britney spears, and savage garden could be blues. not trying to troll or anything but please dont tell people that the national is blues.

I AM SO FUCKING IN!!!
I love my strat!!! Had an amazing jam session/BBQ tonight with some friends I haven't seen in forever. Im still really fucked up; of course it only ended about 30 minutes ago.
Music is a language that usurps all other forms of communication. I don't know how many of you here jam or play in a band, but talk about heightened consciousness, goddamn. You get in that zone where simply eye contact can signal a change in the dynamic, or a key change. It's almost a telepathic/extra sensory experience.
Im gonna go pass out.
Peace.
Oh, and fuck the police. I don't think that can be said too often.
 
hell yeah blues and blues influenced music are the best. John lee hooker is pretty cool, and i just love smoking a spliff and listening to red house by jimi hendrix
