    I am trying to find something wrong with this photo, and I have to admit it - there is nothing.

    That is a BC in the background. Cliff told me the other day that he rocked that batch on his last tour and it smoked! When you guys finally get to hear our new two pickup basses Cliffie is one of the main guys to thank besides Dudley and BP.

    Most of my pics were bad, including this one of Cliff
    playing the buttercream. Bongo Man must have been
    moving too fast to photograph


    Who can it be now?
