Godspeed Luke!

May want to move this thread to the Music section... :\

On the bright side, just think of how many Les Pauls and SVT cabs got sold or traded because of the movie. :)

Perry mentioned that his role model for the movie part was Megadeth's Dave Mustaine, who was injured and had to come to grips with being able to play guitar again.

But Jim Bob, don’t you know that it’s always a far greater tragedy when a celebrity dies than when one of us mere peons does? Doesn’t matter that the guy wasn’t even a musician, he played one in a movie! :roll:
