Way to go BUBBLES!

While on holidays at home this year, I’ve had a fair amount of time on my hands.
I read some fascinating books, did some odd jobs around the house, huge out with my loverly wife and puppy Midnight (she was 1 year old on the 25th) and looked for things to blog about. that is when I came across this guitarist called Dominic Frasca. This man is a monster on guitar!
He is around 41, from Ohio, lives in New York City and there is one more thing that I’m trying to remember about this guy … oh ya he’s a classically-trained guitar virtuoso.
He plays this 10 stringed guitar and has this very unique capo. For the life of me I cannot find out who makes this thing. If you look at this video below or at the 1:21 / 3:17 section of it, you will get a looksie at what I mean. Is it me or this a homemade capo that looks like a carpenter’s “C” clamp that has been modified? Can someone help me out here?
Yours “Sing”cerly, clueless in Canada!
Keep on Jammin’

If you lived in Canada during the mid 70’s – 80’s then this band needs no introduction. For the un-initiated Goddo was a Canadian hard rock band that rocked this country like no other for their on and off stage antics! For just a little taste of these guys, check this anthem called So Walk on, out for size!
This song brings back so many fond memories for me. I played this one for a little bit with my old band called Deuce, but we never played it live … if memory sure me correctly. For all you musicians out there, you will understand the importance of this one.
This song was the very first song that I played on my beloved HiWatt! I was looking for 11 on the volume control but there wasn’t one on it. Boy, My old Hiwatt surely is missed! It’s the one thing I wish I still had in my collection!
These guys were gods back then. I heard their tunes everywhere. They played everywhere and were rock royalty in their day. They were one the great Canadian rock bands that I wish I had the privilege to have seen live. They even had the distinct honour in 1979 to be the first to be stereo TV/radio simulcast of a concert at Maple Leafs Gardens! I was in grade 8 that year and remember that show on TV. It still sends shivers up and down my arms remembering this show. I would have done anything to have been there that historical night in Toronto!
Has anyone out there had a memorable Goddo concert that they’d love to share? I know I’d love to heard it!
So Rock on!
