[kj] OT: Speaking of Bo Diddley...

Not only is that guitar he is using bad ass "space age"-looking, he is
laying down some super thick percussive chunkiness with it, way
crunchier than anything from that era. Son House, the blues guitarist,
was also big on using the guitar as much for percussive effect (palm
muted chugga-chugga type stuff), but Diddley's playing in the vid is
something else. Also, I dig the one chick up front who is also playing
guitar -- she looks pretty cool, kinda hot, actually.
