Here are some pics. Somehow I missed taking pics of the instruments I brought. Hopefully someone else will post. It was great seeing people I hadn't seen for quite a while and meeting new folks. Paul really hosted a great get together and fun time. Got my books signed by Paul and Amy & Joe from Clatter who are wonderful people and a great band. Great shot of Amy & her Ric in the book.

The B15R wasn't there. Apparently a last minute decision not to lug it down the stairs.

Good thing he doesn't own an SVT (to the best of my knowledge)! :lol: But, I certainly understand, that's why I have a Walter Woods Super and an Aguilar Tone Hammer 500 for amps along with fairly lightweight cabinets built by Don Oatman of LDS. :wink:
