Gig pics of my Silhouette Special in action

[doubleR]

Well, after ten months of weekly rehearsals in our drummer's garage, three lead vocalists, three bass players, numerous near-breakups and personality clashes, we finally played a two-night gig this past weekend. At age 49, playing from 9:00 pm to 1:15 am, (with two short breaks) I most definitely appreciated how light and comfortable the Silo is. Not to mention the versatility of the SSH pickup configuration, playing everything from Tom Petty to the Foo Fighters.

You know you bought that shirt to match your Ball.

Lookin' good, keep 'em rockin'. And I hear you loud and clear about age and carrying the weight of an axe on your shoulder all night, and about how sweet it is to play the Sil Spec.

Cool bass face on that guy.

Thanks for sharing the experience.

Nices photos, glad you were having fun out there.

But after going through 3 bass players, how'd you end up with Wilford Brimley?

He needs to supplement his income--those Liberty Mutual commercials don't pay much.

That's what all the breaks were for. So he could test his diabetes . . . and often.

Great pics!!

Covers, from Elvis to U2, and everything in between.
