What's amazing to me is that I can probably name about a third of the people in the pic.

I seem to remember a contingent of "significant others" who opted for the serene, bucolic setting of the protected riverbank behind the Factory over yet more "guitar stuff" :rolleyes: Other than that, perhaps there were people in the cafeteria who didn't get the ". . group photo! . ." call.

The fact that there were some very nice looking ladies in the picture tells me that many wives and girlfriends don't check out the total depravity on the board very often. Thank goodness my wife is in bed when I'm posting.

NOOO dear, don't throw all my instruments out into the thunderstorm, I was corrupted by the OFC but I wil try to change, if I have to. I didn't hear you standing behind me.

Hey everyone,

There may only be 56 people in the picture but I was doing my Official_OFC_Camera_ duty. I was taking a picture. My wife Pearl Is Next to ALPEP and I see Fret #1, Fret #2,and Fret #3-Michael, Gregory and Christopher next to Scot and Rick.

Hey if my kids are frets does that mean my wife is a capo and i'm a headstock ?

I think that in refering to Pearl as a capo, Phil means that she keeps a tight grip on him.

Hey Everyone,
I can take a hint. I will stop with the guitar humor. So don't "fret" about it anymore. I won't "string" you along in anticipation of my next witty comment. I promise I won't attempt to "slide" one in again. If I had my tour pictures back you would see me holding up my "fingerpicking" hand. I will not try to "pick up" any other ideas and I will not "amp" them on the bulletin board again.

Phil
P.S. I just couldn't resist doing it again. :D

I dug up Ken Kesey and the bus and I am somewhere between CT and CA On The Road with Jerry G and Janet all the SFr's from the 60's, if we ever arrive we won't stop but turn right around and head for CA. It was the travelling that counted and you never stopped to be in no static picture, if you want to see a picture of us you have to get on the bus and no digital cameras allowed and , like school children, you must pass the acid test. :eek:

Cliff That photo is quite a Crew! Glad to see one young man had an Ovation in the photo! Al that shirt is a little Pink! and Cliff hey I guess if Jesus played a guitar it would have been an Ovation! Not sure if he would have made that shirt choice though? " You can take my things (accept my Ovation) they've come to take me home"

". . I'm in the front row with the red shirt. . ."

Al, everything I've tried shows that color as being a Pantone 686C. Pink/Mauve MAY be an argument in "semantics". So being that that you're from Jersey (and the fact that I honestly DO "like" you), I'll give you the "Mauve".

But it sure as SHIT ain't "RED"!!!!!!!

btw: The fact that you admit that someone had just recently shaved your ass explains the reason why Templeman is skulking behind you so uncomfortably close . .

So, Stonebobo, are you the vertically gifted dude in the back with the baseball cap? Them is some powerful pituitary hormones, Brother!
And, as for age-related decline in color/hue discrimination, I'm leaning towards the concensual impression that shirt is pretty in pink...but it hangs well, shaved butt notwithstanding......

Well.........after seeing the photo, and reading all the postings (not sure of "ass waxing", it means something different here in the redneck Triad)...I now have 2 things I want to do B/4 I snap my G string. I want to visit the Pro Football Hall of Fame, and the Ovation factory...but...do I want to do either of those things with the OFC group??! :eek:
Oh yeah.....had to install *&%*&(%^%%^ Real Player just so I could hear the Kaki King samples on her website....NOW, nothing else works on my PC, but, Ms.KK "shor nuff kicks ass"
Thanks for all the chuckles.

I added my photos from the tour to my gallery, OFC Tour '04
Half of them are from the Hamer side, and I left out ones that are similar to those already posted (like the Collector's on the wall).
I use old fashioned film and ran out towards the end of the Ovation side. :rolleyes:

Enjoy!! :D

Here is another shot of the group. You can actually see a few more smiling faces. It's full screen, so open in a new window.
