Dan Murphy’s Les Paul Goldtop Guitar MN Historical Society
Re: Dan Murphy’s Les Paul Goldtop Guitar MN Historical Socie
If he gave up that beauty, he must be done with the music business. I'm sure he has other guitars but that one was THE ONE!
Re: Dan Murphy’s Les Paul Goldtop Guitar MN Historical Socie
I was thinking the same thing; I was hoping I'd get to see him do a one-off with GS at least, but I reckon this indicates that he's Done with a capital "D."
Re: Dan Murphy’s Les Paul Goldtop Guitar MN Historical Socie
Had the exact thoughts myself - he's really done.
Re: Dan Murphy’s Les Paul Goldtop Guitar MN Historical Socie
I guess that means the end of the Smog too, at least as a live act. Without Murphy and Tweedy it may as well just be the early-2000s Jayhawks again.

Sigh...I admit this makes me sad and that I held out hope for a GS one-off too. Though there's a part of me that isn't, or maybe shouldn't, be surprised.
Re: Dan Murphy’s Les Paul Goldtop Guitar MN Historical Socie
happy for all the amazing memories. But sa sad anyway. What good is a les Paul if it is not being played? Might as well bury in the back yard.
Re: Dan Murphy’s Les Paul Goldtop Guitar MN Historical Socie
I'm thinking he has more than one of the same guitar. I was looking back at photos and this one does not have the Obama sticker on it that was on there as recent as the last show I saw with Dan (which was one of his last shows). He could have peeled off the sticker, but when I looked back at my photos, it seems like the sticker was there and then not there and then there again, which makes me think there are two. I know Dave has the one with Holiday Inn plate and then one with a sticker on it that I am thinking was like a space camp thing or something. And he seems to use them interchangably. Anyway, maybe he's not completely over playing guitar, he just doesn't think he needs a spare since he's not touring all time.

There's not much I'd love more than if Dan Murphy self-released a solo acoustic album sometime soon.

Not that there's anything wrong with that. Just sayin'Yaz McBoo wrote:I guess that means the end of the Smog too, at least as a live act. Without Murphy and Tweedy it may as well just be the early-2000s Jayhawks again.
To the OP, thanks for posting your finds!
Sometimes I wonder.....why is that Frisbee getting bigger? And then it hits me.
