Hey, I didn't know you played with Gary Puckett and the Union Gap!

It's about a year old, Les you didn't ask. Actually it was a alt.bluegrass band called the Suburbillies.

No I really don't use them out, but I do have a shot around here with the Shadow though. I had a drummer once drop a cymbal stand on one of my blackstars, so they stay at home. As for the Tux, I really don't care for the chunky neck, but the band thinks it sounds better than the Shadow for some reason.

Let's see if I can do this right.

This is me two years ago when I "came out" -- inactive in the music scene for 25 years. Company party with a Blues Brothers motif, '72 4001 in hand.Image

here's a couple. One at the Nottingham Festie last year, 4003 FG; the other - rather blurred but I kinda like it - Norwich this year, 4003JG although you can barely see it.
enough, already.

Local Coffee Shop gig on 2.27.04

June 23rd, 2001 Rock & Roll Revival Concert at Fern Island in Wausau Wisconsin. The first time together again in twenty years. The magic of the Band that was "The Orbits" was there,the vintage vibe and sound as well. Felt good to get out and play music from the "Old Days" once again.
