Don't forget that there are also factory tour pictures from last year on my website that you can find in my profile. After I got to the factory yesterday, the batteries in my camera died after I took two pictures.

Jeff, did you get the serial number of that bass? Wouldn't it be something if it found it's way to your arsenal.

That bass was spoken for a month ago...
“I say in speeches that a plausible mission of artists is to make people appreciate being alive at least a little bit. I am then asked if I know of any artists who pulled that off. I reply, 'The Beatles did.”

We were all over that place! I am amazed we were so well tolerated. We certainly had to have disrupted things is a big way. A tour of the RIC plant is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity and I am grateful to have had the chance. Thanks John, Cindalee, and all of then nice people at RIC who had to work around us for a good part of the day.
