The book's been out 4 days.  man, nothing gets by this guy.

I picture JohnnYYac siting in front of a bank of 10 computer screens monitoring anything MMJ-related going on in the world.

I'm not as pathetic as I seem, though my wife will fall over laughing when she reads your replies.  Each night, I check eBay for Omnichords and MMJ-related stuff.  That's where I found this MMJ guitar book.

Each night and occasionally during my lunch, I check the forum.  Also, I can type pretty fast and have figured out posting pics and copy/paste techniques.  Now, the trick will be trying to buy MMJ/Tom Petty tickets at noon during one of my classes.  Gotta keep the students busy and hope the principal doesn't walk in.  ;)

Now, quiet!  My spidey-sense tells me someone is watching Okonokos on their iPhone... in Spokane, WA.  His name is... Tim.  Gotta get back to work.

These are a couple of shots of JohnnY's home office.  The top one is a before picture prior to his recent equipment update.  JohnnY is the guy in the bottom picture in the blue shirt.

I don't game, but that looks like a serious setup.  

"MMJ Control, this is JohnnYYac, do you read me?"

Hey Kyle,

I caved and got tickets for MMJ/TP for Aug. 21 today.  Ended up with front row!  of section 13.  Here's a link to the seat view.  

http://seatingcharts.livenation.com/ballena/479/test/?pano_name=sec_13_2

They were the $65 dollar seats, but with fees 4 tickets cost $348!!  I need to find a cheaper hobby!

Probably not as complex as your cockpit, I imagine.  

(Did that come across as perverted to anyone else?)  

Its been a long week...

Wow, what does it say that the last three posts are from me?  Too much time on my hands?

Just a heads up that the least expensive place for the MMJ guitar tabs book looks to be eBay

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=400106795371&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT

Amazon can be cheaper if you combine the book with something else, totalling over $25, then shipping is free.  That link is at the top of this thread.

I was in the USAF from 1996-2000 and they made us use the term flight deck.  Cockpit was not politically correct, even in 1996.

:-X ::)

I don't have the best ear and I have learned the majority of the music that I know by tab/chord sheets (self-taught guitar player circa 1993, thank you).  I tend to forget how to play songs a lot sooner if I didn't figure it out on my own.  I am still a fan of convenience and usually use tab/chords.

Has anyone received their tab book yet?

Repeating flyguy, has anyone gotten this book?  I've ordered it, but was curious what others think.
