George Bush Sr. and Chet

I noticed that George H.W. Bush is 94 today. That makes him exactly 8 days older than Chet!

Not as good on the guitar, though.

That's funny :lol:

It's a shame Chet couldn't have lived as long!

Kind of irks me when I watch Chet videos on Y'tube, and people comment that he is Dubya.

Chet doesn't really look like Geroge, does he??? Or are my eyes bad.

I will say this much, though. Claes Neeb looked hauntingly like Chet in his Y'tube videos. A true doppelgänger.

Micah Yandell and I are always talking about Claes Neeb. Not only does he look like Chet at times, his playing of certain tunes sounds almost exactly like Chet too. I always thought he really had "the touch". Claes was one heck of a guitar player in his day! Paul introduced me to him at CAAS one year, a super nice fellow.

So it wasn't just my imagination! Watching some of his videos, to me it was almost spooky how much he resembled Mr Guitar. Like he was channeling Chet!

Claes was a fine picker. One of the best, after Chet's own heart.
