I need to mentor you on excuses to leave work for higher priorities! In my office I have earned exactly three "Forty-Hour" awards for staying all week. It ain't missing work! |

Location: Colorado | Just reporting back home in Colorado from the slothead reunion...great time thanks Al and Bill..it was surreal for me infact. I'll get around to emailing all you other new friends after the gig...the Buell theater calls...and it's Wicked. Made the gig ontime. Hope my guitar finds its way home someday.

Location: NJ | Y'want "History"??
How's THIS for "History"??? :
Got a LOT of really great shots.
Unfortunately, in order to get this clockwork "Gallery" software to accept them is frustrating in that the images really suffer when you have to res them this small. For now, these two will have suffice until I can muster enough patience . . . .
We all had a GREAT time!!!
BIG thanks to Al, Bill, Frank, Rick, Kim, and (again) the ENTIRE Factory staff . . . .
We all got a private FactoryTour, and (while I'd aleady SeenIt/DoneIt) it was fun watching ElginAcres see it all for the first time. Much like watching a kid on Christmas. After lunch, we all did a private tour of the "traditional" Adamas section of the operation, and and a bunch of the guys had gotten a printout of how their SlotHead fared on the LaserVibrometer . . . purty interesting shit. Adamas veteran Nick Mackin was there to offer a LOT of SlotHead insight/anectodes, and my stomach STILL hurts from laughing while sitting across from Bill and next to Timm Kummer at Fri. nite's dinner!
We had a BLAST!!!
It's late and maybe I'll make an attempt t'get some more pictures up tomorrow, but when y'gotta make 'em this small, they really suffer . . . .
(yes, Paul . . . there are in fact a pair of REALLY old Nationals (a Style "O" and a Style2 TriCone) that'll be "wintering" here in NJ, and I'll be needing to pick up an instructional Mando book . . . hope we get a SHITLOAD of snow this Winter!:-) |

Location: SoCal | Ya know, the guitars in that picture are 1/3 of the total production of the slotheads. The rest are probably sitting in cases in storage somewhere along with the rest of various rock stars equipment. A third lasted 30 years and are still played.
Just incredible.... |
