Coolest. Cat. Ever.

Coolest. Cat. Ever. | A "funk spot" where someone sits doesn't sound too cool.
Back to the topic: That had to be a thrill to have him in the house.

The lucky dude, funkstar560, has some chops too. Sometimes, I'd rather hang out with a legend than attend a clinic, you know? Just shoot the breeze. |

Louis' "Johnson" was at your house?  I'd kick it in the balls and tell it to leave...... |

Ok. My little joke bombed. I guess no one LOOKED CLOSE enough at my previous post. Or, no one gave a rat's ass...... I give up.  |

Louis was being way cool and encouraging. I think one of the comments said Johnson wanted the guy to be on his instructor's list. What an honor.
