What a cool story Wedge, did you ever do any shows in Reno, Nv.?
I used to was the house sound and lighting tech, from '97 to '03,at Lawlor Events Center/University of Nevada.

 

[align=left]I've been to Reno many times... but I retired in 1994 after I was lucky enough to obtain a compression fracture of my L4-L5 and 3 ruptured discs. Did it at Bally's in Vegas when I replaced a hand lifting a Gamble EX56. I worked for Sound Image in San Marcos, CA. My last tour was as the monitor engineer for the Band on the Jericho tour a few years before Danko died. My new joke is I used to mix bands, now I mix paint... I work 3 days a week at the local Ace hardware store as the dept manager. It gives me something to do... and a good way to keep in touch with whats happening in my rapidly expanding town.
Stories... yeah... a few...

Hey Wedge,
How about postin' a few storiesin, "True Stories of....", in the off topic forum?
I know a lot of us would love to read them.

 

I would just LOVE to read some more of those!!

I was at the '84 (I believe??) show of Motley Crue in Vancouver. Those guys really really know how to kick out a show. They were here recently, but we missed it, much to my chagrine.

 

[align=left]Didn't miss too much... saw them open for the Stones 2 years ago on Seattle. Older, fatter (Vince...ha ha) real scary lookin up close... (Mick Mars... and Jagger for that fact)... but they still rock. Right up to their bedtimes, which is about 11pm!

1959 Corvette Convertible

Right now it is gold with a black insert, a 350ci engine and a 4 speed.

Soon it will be black with a silver insert, complete C5 suspension, 383 w/ 450 hp, and a 6 speed.

 

Sweeeeet!......We definately need pictures of that. '59 is a great looking car. Cheers
