Re: Deke's Guitar Geek DVD- Venturesmania!

supertwangreverb - 05 Apr 2005 23:19:26

Sounds cool! I saw some pictures on the Ghastly Ones site awhile
back, looked like a lot of fun.
I agree with you about Deke! Today, he makes some of his early
Untamed Youth stuff, which I still think is still EXCELLENT, look
sloppy, and he does stuff back then I will never ba able to.
He's coming to Chicago saturday night, as a side note, I'm currently
playing in a band with Deke's bassist Jimmy Sutton. So, hopefully
I'll get to speak with Deke, make an ass of myself, and be a dork
and offer him a copy of our album.
