Hendrix

Last night we were in the van and on our way to meet up with a friend for dinner. For the last few days we'd been rockin' out to the latest Spoon album, and once again it was whirlin' in the player. Here's the short and slightly comical conversation that ensued:

Me: Could we listen to something else?

D: Sure (settling on the first track of Axis: Bold as Love)

Me: (listening for a bit) What is this?

D: Jimi Hendrix.

Me: (in a playfully sarcastic tone) This'll be enjoyable.

D: You don't like Hendrix?

Me: (sarcastically again) Oh yeah, all this feedback and pompous guitar solos...

E: What's that? Spaceships?

D: That's what he's trying to make his guitar sound like.

E: (gazing out the window) Sounds like it's broken.
