Location: Scotland | I've been a huge fan of Peter Case since his days with "The Nerves" and "The Plimsouls" but especially of his solo work over the last 20-odd years. It's always great to share a bill with a musician you admire, but even better to be invited onstage to jam. It was a blast and we freakin' ROCKED!. (any resemblence to the member formerly known as Cliff is purely coindicental, and consequently content should not be veiwed. By anyone)

Location: Scotland | It's an Eastwood/Airline. Their interpretation (or rip-off, depending on your standpoint and legal budget) of a 50's Harmony Roy Smeck model, but upgraded with vintage Dearmond pickups. Played through a ZT Lunchbox amp with an extension speaker. Cool guitar and huge-sounding amp. HD Audio/Video to follow |

Location: Jet City | I didn't know this dude, so I did some listening around. Pretty cool stuff, I wonder what the alternate tunings he's using are.
Too bad there's nothing scheduled for Seattle. |

Location: Scotland | That's pretty much it. I've known Peter for years and he knew I played but we'd never played on the same bill until a few days ago. So we did our set and he asked me to join him at the end of his. Very cool, and great fun, he's a monster. |

Location: Michigan | that is a moment that i think we all share(fantasize) that one day an icon of ours would ask us up on stage in front of an audience and jam together.
were you nervous at all ? you would of had to put a diaper on me to do that.
paul what tuning were you playing your lap steel in ? what song/s did you play?
did you play a lead or chords.
i am very interested to hear some of your lap steel work.i am having fun trying to figure the lap steel out. that must of been a very :cool: experience for you.
is it your 15 minutes of rock fame :D ? GWB |

The man's a consummate pro, he can sit down and play anything without a second thought and make it sound superb. I can maybe think of 5 people that can play slide with that kind of tone and ease. |
