Let me stand next to your fire...

Years ago, a possessed man preformed a distinctly pagan ritual at the 1968 Miami Pop
Festival. Frank Zappa was gifted with the charred sunburst Strat. With a new neck and pickups, it served the father of weird through out his musical career. (Dweezil is trying to sell the thing. Jerk.)

 

 

The evening of Sun God 2005, a group of students trudged into one of UCSD's many canyons with nothing but a propane torch and hair products to sacrifice a badly routed Mexican Strat body. These photos document the incident.

Alex had way too much fun pouring stuff on.

 

A gently masked Wine Red Strat waits in the dark.

Flame ahoy! (Propane torch from James Stoner Hulk)

           

Freaking cool.

The guitar lives...

Pieces of me
