It is mine, John! The 125 is one of the last affordable vintage Gibsons you can get. Really cool guitars! I love mine.

Lookin good with that Stingray. Tell us about MIS!
I DID get my hair cut.....SEVERELY, and UNDER PROTEST... but one needs to be able to AFFORD these toys!

MIS was....well....fricking awesome. Those people can DRINK!
We do a 4-hour set straight thru, Springsteen 1978 style, except we play harder rock (not dissing the Boss) and we are not playing the Meadowlands.

Yeah, but which hair was it that got cut!! :lol: Just funnin' ya Steve.

That had to be a really great experience, playing there and for that size crowd. 4-hour set - I'm impressed you guys have that much material. Had to be a rush!

We do, and we turned half of the stuff over the second night! (a whole different 2 hours worth!) And we didn't even get to play it all!!
Since I've Been Loving You by Zeppelin turned out to be a early surprise hit with that crowd.

A couple with my Waterstone TP12 ("prototype" to their 32" scale 12 string basses) and Michael Kelly 5 string fretless acoustic. Oh yeah, and a 4004MB 4-2-5 sitting on the side for a few tunes. :D Nothing like a 12 string bass on Johnny Cash music.

A 12 string bass also gets a lot of attention. Many people have never seen or heard of a 12 string bass before. They love it when they hear it!
JETGLO should officially be renamed JETGLO ROCKS! :-)
