That's a good run, better than most get, in fact.

Why is it so goddamned hard to get little assholes like you to admit it when you fuck up? Is it pride? What gives you the right to have any pride?

I got to see him do a live show with "Lucille", his Gibson guitar and I was amazed. Usually the most highly skilled guitarists have long, spindly fingers but here was a guy with pudgy sausage fingers and not only was his tactile control of the strings flawless but not once did he scrape. It's like he had extra joints in his fingers.

His guest appearance in Amazon Women on the Moon was hilarious, too.
