Flatwound01 alerted me to this video of a High School (?) band called the Clams doing a instro medley. These guys are having a blast. Everybody should watch it to remember that the point of playing music is to have fun.

Yep! The buzz those kids must have got playing on that is hard to reproduce as a full fledged grownup.

I don't know - solid state amp, no outboard reverb, dano non-surf guitar (probably even has thin strings), no matching outfits. I don't see anything fun about it!!

Yeah, the guitarist is playing a Dan Electro/Silvertone from the
guitar and amp in a case era (mid 60's). Amp is Roland Jazz Chorus 120.
And the Keyboard (somebody help me out here) is a VOX Jaguar or Continental Organ??
