• It\'s in New York. It\'s hard enough for us to make it to the valley, let alone NYC.

  I saw this Les Paul special on CPTV yesterday. I was amazed at the genius of Les Paul and that he is 90 years old still playing. Good for him. Would love to see this guy while he is still alive just to say I did but work ruins life.
