I was a machine!!! Totally burnt up 3 weedeaters. lol
I live in an old neighborhood with canopies of big oak trees and the yards aren't st. augustine, just kinda weeds.
I know for a fact my neighbors back yard had not been touched in 10 years. It had places of wood and tin overgrown by weeds. I talked to my neighbor, who at the time I had no idea was one of the best guitarist ever, and said, Jesse I'm hot with this weedeater, mind if I take a whack at your yard? He thought I meant trimming and said OK. It was 10 a.m. and he said he'd be home around 4. Cool.
When he got home, his yard looked like it came out of Better Homes and Gardens. No detail missed anywhere. lmao
He looked at it totally stunned. He said..Is there anything I can do for you? I gave him the universal sign for smoking a joint. We smoked out and he gave me some to go.
Jesse died about 5 years back of cirrhosis. He said he drank beer everyday from the age of 16. He was the kindest man I've ever known but when he was young it was highly advised not to piss him off.
Jesse guitar taylor if you feel like googling.
I didn't know him all that long but loved him to the bottom of my heart..I miss him dearly.
