Ah, Cedarburg..is it still as nice as the last time I visited--in '82, Paul?

Yep! Maybe better! Lots of little shops, antiques, crafts, coffee houses, candies, bakeries. Strawberry Festival is quite the deal. They close off the main street to cars, and the pedestrian traffic is butthole to belly button for about a half mile. I wanted to see another band playing down the street during a break, but the going was so slow, I had to turn around halfway so I would be present for my next set. Perfect weather, sunny and about 80. Festival gigs are the best!

Nice lookin bass Paul... I think that is one of the better pictures I've seen to get the real feel for the color.

Here's the entire group. Guitarist second from left is a sub (but quite the shredder!). You can just barely see my 660/12 MB in front of the keyboard dood. Photos by the lovely Dorothy.

Yes, Tom. Most photos show Sea Green being "less green" -- perhaps the cold color temp of strobes make it look more aquamarine.

Ampeg Svp Pro (preamp). I use a Aguilar Gs212 as cabinet. Pretty cool combination!

Cool! Become quite fond of SVX myself, too bad it's stuck in my computer! Image

Sounds awesome though.... if you looked in the audio encyclopedia under "Rick Tone" you'd find that video!
