Ah, that dates you (and me). Right around the time of "Roundabout" being on the radio, if memory serves. 1971-ish. I was in the USAF at Hanscom Field, MA as base photographer. One of the guys in the lab had a few of the National Lampoon mags that were passed around.

"Roundabout" was MY introduction to Chris Squire and Rickenbacker Basses!!!!! Still LOVE both to this day!!!!!!

Re: Post of picture of you PLAYING your ric
Ian, are you running ROS with 6x10 and 2x15? Seems like I might be able to hear your next gig if I just stick my head out of the window at the right time (assuming an east wind, of course).
Can we have everything louder than everything else?

Hi. Yes it's 6x10 + 2x15.
I don't use ROS. Perhaps I should try it.
I don't use the Rics at every show.
I just have a 4-way splitter box - 1 in / 2 out to Trace Elliots / 1 out to Hartke rig.
