Hello guys. im from the guitar side but i thought i post these pics on the Bass Side too. John Myung using a Bongo is an instant classic. Enjoy

Here are some pics i've taken from my cell phone. i won't tell you guys their set list but all i can say is that their set list yesterday was arguably one of their best! I apologize in advance for the poor quality of the pics. i was both in the middle of having a good time and trying to take good pics at the same time. besides, even the best digital camera out there won't do justice on how beautiful these guitars are! ENJOY

Oh man, that's sick. I need to go search to learn about the Bongo story if there is one. Or anyone care to share so I can be lazy.

Judging by his hand position and my extensive knowledge of DT tapping licks:)D:D:D), I would say he is playing the intro to Scarred....one of my favorite bass riffs ever. I could be wrong though, whoever took the pics might be able verify. Bongo6 looks rad on JM!

You're Right! Intro To Scarred was the song he is playing. He used Bongo's throughout the whole concert which made me feel so stoked! I wish i've taken more videos of him playing but... JP got the best of me.. LoL:D

It just so happens I was at the same show with Drewbixcubed and some other MM folks. Here's a couple shots I got.

Our seats weren't that good though, the bass tech kept getting in the way of my camera. :D

What a pedal board!

Nice JP collection?

What a great show- the sound was killer and they tore it up.

Being a father, I especially thought it was cool when Mike Portnoy brought his two kids out during the encore to play the chimes on his drum kit. He also brought them out at the end of the show to take a bow.

Top notch playing by all and the nicest guys you'll ever meet.

Special thanks to Jerry and Kevin, the guitar techs, for letting us get in the way and giving us the VIP treatment!
