Man.. that is a photo I will cherish. THE Les Paul!! The cat is 93 years old, still playin his ass off and laughing and flirting with every girl that walked by. hahaha I wanna be like him when I am 93. I kinda doubt i will make it that far after all the years of raging. hahaha
BUT.. it shows you playing guitar keeps you young at heart.

I was really honored to be there with all the legends and I know and have worked with 99% of them all. Guys Like James Burton and Duane Eddy all the way up to Slash and Richie Sambora and Skunk Baxter, Eric Carmen and Jennefier Batten who KILLED on the classic "Lover".
Everyione played there asses of. Baxter killed me with his jazz chord melody stuff and there were many surprises all night long. They filmed it for the rock n roll hall of fame. Probably the clostst *I* will ever get to it. hahaha I even did an interview for fucking Rolling Stone.com. haha Will wonder never cease? haha

I will be posting all the guests who have said they are playin my charity event Dec 21st at the Roxy. Alot of the people you see in those photo's will be there. Gonna be a gas and for a great cause!

I am gonna chill and enjoy Lily and family time this weekend before Paich and I hit it with George next week.
You guys all have a nice weekend.

Oh, I will post my tour dates Mon. I was waiting for the last dates of the tour to be confirmed which they now have been.

Excellent stuff from the Luke!

Luke great to see you jammed with all these greats and had a blast! Wow, I can't believe that Les Paul is still as young as he feels and giving you great vibes to be jamming with him! That is one special moment to remember Luke! Great to see Skunk once again....was wondering where that cat was hiding!

Thanks for the pics....and low down on your recent gigs ~ looks like your hard yards are paying off right now and you are in "LG" mode.

Give Lily a big hug and kiss for me and why not give one to Mr Paich for me too!!
