Tell me when.
First beating.
Tell me a story.
All right.
Well, I was thinking earlier about Stevie, you know, with the plaque and being inducted here.
And, you know, what a great, great thing it would be for him.
How tickled to death he would be about this, you know.
That's a bad choice of words, but tickled pink.
He would be really happy about this.
And, you know, all the he loved to play.
And that's all he only thought about.
So it's a big old deal.
And he could have never imagined it in a million years.
And then Fender.
I've been playing the guitar for 30 years or so, and there's always been guitars around the house.
So it's a big old deal.
A 50 year anniversary is quite a deal.
So ask me a question.
What do you want me to say?
We want to hear some stories, some interesting stories.
Well, I heard a story.
I got a buddy guy story I heard about.
It's hard that these people went to see Buddy Guy in San Francisco.
And they told me that it was at the end of the night, the last song.
Buddy Guy was down on the front of the stage and the band is rocking and they're going.
He takes his guitar and sets it back on the amp, his Stratocaster, and the G string starts going.
Feeding back, you know, he's singing, he's down, he's singing.
Then he pulled out his handkerchief and threw it over his shoulder and it landed on the strings and stopped it.
That's a Buddy Guy story.
[A] Any [Bb]
other [Ab] stories you hear about the [B] bands?
[Bb] [N]
Oh, I remember we played one gig one time in Austin.
I was about 17, [Eb] so Stevie was not very old.
We didn't have a bass player, so I made him.
I had a Barney Kessel.
I made him take the Barney Kessel and tune it down and play bass on that.
[E] So we used to do stuff like that a lot.
What can I say?
I mean, we toured the world for many years and [Gb]
played a lot of gigs under the bridge.
Tell them about your story.
Huh?
The song Brothers.
Oh yeah.
On Family [N] Style there's a tune, a slow blues tune at the end.
And people used to always screw with us and accuse us of saying that when we were kids that we were fighting over guitars and all this stuff.
This Brothers stuff that didn't really happen, so we decided to make a song that did that.
That we actually had a fight in the song.
And so if you listen to the song, you can hear there's only one guitar going on.
We're both playing at separate times, but there's only one guitar.
And you can hear us pulling it apart from each other during the middle of the verse and making all the noise.
So if you listen real close, you can hear it.
What I'm up to is, let's see here.
We just put out the tribute to Stevie Ray that happened last year actually, at the end of my tour from the Strange Pleasure tour, which was my first album, solo record.
And then I'm in the studio right now making my second album, which will come out the first of the year.
And then I'll be on tour behind there.
And so, there's been a lot going on.
A lot going on.
So watch out, I'm coming.
How did you guys assemble the group that played on it?
Actually, it was very simple.
I sat down and wrote out some songs that I thought would be good for the tribute.
And I called them up and they all said yes.
I mean, everybody, it was one of those things that you know it's the right thing because everybody's going yes and it just went together.
And everybody was really happy to do it and wanted to do it.
And you can see that in the tape.
If you watch the tape, the home video, the tribute to Stevie Ray Vaughan, you can see it.
Everybody's having a good time and that's exactly what happened.
And the tape's not all a bunch of cut up.
That was the show. Go!
First beating.
Tell me a story.
All right.
