Aww man, that's awesome!

I laughed hard at that ant... it's like Stonehenge!

And Rudess' keytar...



But oh man, that Bongo 6... it looks so right... I want one

Looks to me like a Bongo 6 HS


PS - That's so awesome seeing a Musicman Guitar & Bass in the same band!

 

[GreyDad]

Yes!!

It's the silver one. It had to be the silver one... looks amazing, wish we could hear it too.

To quote DT, "It's only a matter of time."

EDIT:

You can just barely hear JM and the Bongo 6HS. He has a little "solo" bit, where you can hear him pretty clearly.

I heard JM and his Bongos perfectly clearly tonight in Phoenix. I didn't think the transition to the Bongo would have such an immense impact on his tone and presence in the mix, but it did. It's 1000x better.

How tall is JM? That Bongo looks BIG.

That 6 looks enormous in those photos. Too much bass for me. I like a 4.

 

[Big Poppa]

me too Babydoll!

The Bongo6 fits JM.

I think the Bongo 6 is too much for me too. I'm thinking 4H when I finally get one. I agree it looks huge, not disproportional, but huge! Heck, I think it looks huge when Poppa plays it. I think it looks good, though.

Amazing musicians and the photos seem to catch the energy. I wish I had been there.
