I just had 3 of Daves basses in for some set up work. I still get a thrill working on stuff like that.

dwf1004, a mod from the guitar side, has posted some pics of Dave LaRue playing the Desert Gold Burst Bongo in a concert with the Dixie Dregs a while back. There are also pics of Dave's Blue Dawn Bongo!

Fogman made that picture...I just scaled it down so I could use it as an Avatar. I gotta say though, it's freak'n hilarious.

I saw Dave for the first time up in New York and he was absolutely amazing! I was there mainly for Steve Morse, but, when Dave would do some solo work, Steve would literally stop playing, stand in and watch Dave. I have found a new inspiration when it comes to bass playing. He mainly played (hate to bring up the color thing) a Blue Dawn Bongo and it was awesome.

I will probably buy the book, and hope to obtain 1% of his talent.....

I had seen the blue burst before but don't know how I missed the orange burst??? Drool, drool, drool!

On a side note, Mingus, that avatar is just disturbing
