About Me |
|
| J.J. Vicars tore outta the Sci-Fi Diner in a '59 Cadillac with mounted steerhorns and backward flames, his trusty six-string peeling off hot, greasy slabs of barbecued Blues, hard driving Boogie, and barn-burning Rock 'n' Roll. For two decades he's been tearing up stages throughout the U.S. and overseas with his full-throttle guitar, gruff vocals, and driving backbeat. His straight-ahead, no-prisoners approach has dance floors heaving and sweat running down the walls at that greasy spoon of the celestials. "And if there come the singers and the dancers and the flute players, buy of their gifts also. For they too are the gatherers of fruit and frankincense, and that which they bring, though fashioned of dream, is raiment and food for your soul." --Khalil Gibran,THE PROPHET "...who at the best knows the triumph of high achievement; and who at the worst, if he fails at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat." --Teddy Roosevelt "The hero is the one who asserts his humanity in the face of the machine." --Joseph Cambell "I love being alive and I will be the best man I possibly can.-- I will take love wherever I find it and offer it to whoever will take it...seek knowledge from those wiser and teach those who wish to learn from me." --Duane Allman Layout Generator by MyspaceLayoutSpy.com |
