Nice Pics. Amazing how the Sterling Silver looks nothing like silver under the stage lights, I thought it was a very rare white Bongo

Man, you're a rockstar- it is encouraging and motivating for me just starting out to see pics like this. Thanks for posting. I really like your strap.

judging by the fact that he said it was his "original bongo 5HH" and the fact that his sig says his SS bongo has a black PG i think that is actually a rare ass white bongo! :eek: if so, sweeeeeeet bass

That's not my current sterling silver Bongo 5 HH, that's my ORIGINAL white with white pearloid pickguard Bongo 5 HH that I sold some time ago.

You sold a white bongo!?! Bet youre kicking yourself. :D

Yes, I do "kick" myself for selling it, that was one GORGEOUS bass.
However, every night that I take my sterling silver Bongo 5 HH I get LOTS of compliments. My orange firemist Bongo 5 single H is getting rave reviews as well.
Bongos look good in any and ALL colors which means it's a truly brilliant design.

Speaking of rock stars, since I've been a permanent member of the band we've opened for Kansas, Cheap Trick, Bachman Turner Overdrive, Steppenwolf, Loverboy, The Alan Parsons Project, Foreigner, Styx, REO Speedwagon, Eddie Money and The Georgia Satellites.

Kansas are personal friends of ours because Robby Steinhardt (violin, vocals) was a member of our band after he first left Kansas. Robby occasionally "sits in" with us.

Alan White of YES is also a personal friend of ours. The last time that YES was in town, Alan got us free tickets for the entire band and one guest each which included full access including the after concert "meet-and-greet."

One of the more memorable shows that we have done was when we were the "back-up" band for both Jimi Jamison of Survivor and Mike Reno of Loverboy.

Great pics - thanks for sharing!

You look a bit familiar - wondering if I saw your Band over at Universal's Citywalk a few years back.

We've not played at Universal's Citywalk only Downtown Disney's Pleasure Island which has since closed. All of the pictures with the exception of the pictures of us with Mike Reno of Loverboy and Jimi Jamison of Survivor were taken at Pleasure Island. I played at Pleasure Island for 5 years with the band. Perhaps you actually saw us there.
