OK, so it is me talking about Howard Dean again, but this time it is a MUSIC thread.

Here is the story from Reuters with photos of Howard Dean playing blues at Blues on Grand in Des Moines.

'Dean said previously he taught himself how to play the guitar when he was 15, and was going to perform on "sheer nerve."'


"I've only played once in my life, when I was sober," he said in an earlier interview. Asked if he was sober for his performance, Dean responded, "I haven't had a drink for 22 years."
