Crappy picture from the back of the room while BP, Luke, and LaRue were talking about everything under the sun.

Now, on to Saturday night. Here's the buffet which was put together by Drue something. Sorry, didn't catch his last name. The guy is from New Orleans, and he trained under Paul Prudhomme. Some great food like crawfish etouffee, jambalaya, blackened grouper with a cream sauce, some eggplant thing, and the best darn pecan pie I have ever had in my entire life. It came with a bourbon syrup. Wow!

One of two bar counters. This one happened to have Rockin' Ray standing in front of it.

Yeah. That's totally NOT what you played.

 

[Colin]

OMG,
someone finally gives me what I want!
Hot picks of the back of a (BFR?) beautiful neck! That is so freaking hot, I can't sit still as I type this! I don't know what it is gonna take for my next order (Bongo5 HS) to have a neck this spectacular, but I will do whatever it takes.

I'm wondering if this whole BFR thing is what BP was talking about, when he said he had come up with ways to make us spend our cash in 2007.
Cause I will def. pay more for beauty/quality like that! AMAZING

sry jack...I found a bongo i like more than yours!

 

[jeffrey]

The neck on that Bongo is Birdseye Maple I believe.

It's just got a translucent finish to complement the mahogany body.

 

[Colin]

OMG! That is so freaking hot

I'm glad you said freaking....

 

[robelinda2]

i'm going ga ga over the Luke pics, cant wait till that axe becomes official!!!

beautiful beautiful guitar!!!!!!

 

[slukather]

Man that Luke looks fantastic, can't wait 'till it comes out, if it does.

It's great to see Tony Spinner there too (he's such a cool guy), playing a EBMM too.

Looks like everyone was having a great time, l wish l was there.

Scott.

 

[Steve Dude Barr]

Dave's Bongo is beyond words cool.

 

[kneeoh]

Sweet pics dude... i especially like the one of BP preparing to wack you.... gotta protect that martini!

I thought Dave said the neck was mahogany too. Whatever - it is a gorgeous bass.

 

[PocketGroove82]

I don't care it it's birdseye or mahogany! A Trans. Finish on a neck!
<SWOON>

 

[Spudmurphy]

It kinda looks like Birdseye to me too.
It looks a completely different grain to my "piece of Mahogany"

No doubt someone from EB will chime in when they get home from the party!!

 

[Ponch]

hahah Big Poppa looks very cool with that chair haha..what did you you do bro Rob? are you sayin' something silly or what lol

 

[Kirby]

Great pics! Next year for sure. Glad everyone had a great time and thanks to all who kept those of us not there in the loop! Can't wait to see the new offerings, more mahogany?

 

[LoudGtr]

The more I see that Axis SS the more and more I like it. Wow. Just make a duplicate or heck send the original to the Twelfth Fret up here in Canada and I'll be waiting

Cheers.
