 Memories found on mySpace

| Well, I ran across this photo in my old Bass players gallery on mySpace. It's from the early 90's. Just thought I would share. Although it is a hoot, and this was not one of our more stellar gigs, there are a couple of things that brought back fond memories. This is one of the only pictures I can find of my trusty Viper ver2.0 with the Kahler bridge and Carvin pickups. Note the wood pickguard. Sorry MWoody, but you weren't the first. I made that PG in the 80's. When I installed the Kahler, I broke the original, and just used a piece of paneling. It looked good as long as you didn't get too close. This is also the only picture I know of, of my amp setup that I used for many years. It's two Roland Bolt 60's both set on their "clean" channel, with each leg of the stereo out of a Rockman X-100 going to each. Those are still my favorite amps, although they remind me of my Guzzi bikes. They may not be pretty, and you may have to kick'em and shake'em to get them to work, but they run great once fired up, and never left me stranded. I also see my trusty pearl color BC Rich Bich. It was an NJ Series, but it rocked. It's too bad the shot doesn't show a little more off to the right, as I'm sure my trusty Ovation Medallion Acoustic was on its stand off to my left. And just in case you are wondering... those boxes just next to Lee's right leg on the stage... You guessed it. We never went on without plenty of "stage presence" :) Get it.. "stage"... "presents"... Hey, it was the 90's!!! Lee was going through his Angus Young meets Richard Simmons phase I guess too. Oh... and for those of you who looked at that picture and the coffee just spewed out on your computer... I apologize... but.. I did the same thing when I first ran across it!!! enjoy...  | |||

As long as we're sharing...  Circa 1980 or so. | |||
