My son, the rock star Twitter king?

Yes, it's true, soon-to-be-legendary rock guitarist Robert Stacy McCain Jr. is on Twitter.

Bob's got my arrogance, whereas his twin brother Jim has my charm. This difference probably explains why Bob devotes so much time to his guitar thing, while Jim -- who plays both guitar and bass -- isn't so much into the Young Rock God trip. Jim can actually talk to girls, whereas Bob lazily stands around expecting to be admired for his awesomeness.

Being a parent is an educational experience about the decisive role of temperament in human affairs . . .

  1. A Gibson SG...the best all-around guitar. I've got a '62 with the original pickups. Bought her from a guy who had to leave town real quicky [IYKWIMAITYD] for $500; found out several years later it was worth five grand. I will never sell Virgina Dare though--she and I have been through too much together.

  4. Does he know how to play the wine red SG? Gibson makes a fine guitar, if you can afford them these days. Luckily I don't play guitar, but something much worse and more expensive. :)

    That's why I got so sick of playing rock music: Too many hacks with mucho attitude. I'll stick with blues.

    PS. I'm not claiming your son is a hack. It's just that in my experiences the people with the least amount of talent had the biggest egos.
