Thank you Paul. I thought about sending you a photo for the book but you must have plenty already. This one is really clean.
Speaking of book, how's it coming?
I'd love to have high-res photos of it. Book is going very slowly. Getting historical information is harder than I thought. Got a lot of nice photos from Forumites, though.

Realizing you just drove 460 miles in one weekend, listened to the drummer for hours on end in the van with little sleep, had a spectacular "all you can eat" casino buffet in Pahrump, NV, and made $2.41 per hour for the whole weekend's 10 sets - PRICELESS!!!!

I once heard that "Pahrump" was named for an elephant's fart...

In spite of all the non-show related b.s., it actually was fun, John. Nothing like an appreciative audience to pull one's head out of one's hind end over all the non-show related stuff for a while. And they're partially who we do it for, eh?
Plus, I knew sleep was only a few hours away by this time.
