Anybody know who this guitar player is?

Anybody recognize this Warmoth-using guitar player? He has lots of tattoos, so he's obviously famous, but I'm not familiar with him. (Also, he's obviously smart, cuz look at that bridge pickup. Although....I must deduct intelligence points for those string ends.)

Anybody?

Is that "Goofus"? From Goofus and Gallant Fame?

That's John Dwyer from Thee Oh Sees. Awesome band, even more awesome album covers.

I keep a folder of old Highlights magazines and I am pretty sure that is Goofus pounding on a guitar at guitar center right before getting kicked out.

I mean, he wasn't even playing "Smoke On The Water" correctly. He had to go.

I've been listening to Thee Oh Sees for years but have never seen video or pictures. How weird.

I've never seen a video, but I've seen them live a few times. I should check out a video, because I'm sure they're interesting!

Well, it's just a performance video from KEXP (god bless that station), but here's a winner:

oh geez, I am unclear, did those folks willingly pay for that? It reminds me of Hagwood after 2 or 3 espressos.

The opening number is quite bracing, but it gets a little more melodic and interesting as the show progresses. But even so - it ain't for everyone.

That video is a good find, because the photo at the beginning of this thread is from this performance.

Also, notice that Electrical Guitar? I don't think I've seen an acrylic body on one before. I wonder if that's just an Electrical neck replacement on an Ampeg body?

100 bonus points for excellent guitar face!

-95 points for not clipping the strings. I actually did get poked in the eye once!
