American guitar legend Les Paul passed away today. While I haven’t had the pleasure of owning a Les Paul myself, I have worked with musicians who did, and I understand the love. Back in my Midget Farmer days we recorded a song to honor this great man and his legendary guitar. This track was written by guitar demon Danny ‘Bloodspoon’ Grady, who graced us with his presence whenever we played this tribute live. Here’s the studio version that appeared on our album “America’s Place to Waste your Life” released in 1993.

Here’s a fun tip on creating a fiery looking buddy icon in Adium for OSX.
- Take picture in Photo Booth, or directly from Adium’s ImagePicker
- Click spiral effect button, then choose the Color Invert filter
- Click Set to apply filter
- Click your buddy icon, click Choose Icon
- Repeat steps 2 – 4 and apply the filters False Color, then Concert
- Voila – your buddy icon is red hot!
Typically I’ll take my photos using Photo Booth so I can keep the original, and sometimes I may even use that picture for my dailymugshot. When you walk through these filters, you’ll notice some filters won’t work as well for some photos, so play around with what you use. Sometimes I’ll replace Color Invert with X-Ray, or Concert with Gamma Adjust. It all depends on the picture I choose for a buddy icon. Sometimes I’ll just keep layering until I create some crazy looking buddy icon, go crazy!
Here’s a photo step by step so you can see the final product.
