I'm doing a brilliant job. It's everyone else who're uncool plebes.

I omitted all the usual suspects. Haven't listened to Zeppelin in maybe a year except for if it comes on the radio. Still my fave band of all time though.

Plankton is awesome. Dual guitars playing nothing but vintage Strats into vintage non master volume Marshalls.

Great cover of Take 5 which really starts to smoke around the 2 minute mark.

Yeah he's awesome. What year are those strats? Strats made in the early 90s are now considered vintage - tempus fugit. Cool if he can afford 60s Strats though.

Definitely 50s and 60s. Same with the amps. Their first album had a great picture of their gear inside but I can't find it online. Looked all beat to **** but sounds incredible.
