... though I think he could use a nice wide strap:  I'm not familiar with this guy or his music, but this photo was in my local paper a few days ago and I really got a kick out of it. I borrowed it from the front page of his web site. | ||

Careful Joey - there are at least photos of my bass here, unlike some people we know... And even one of me (though cleverly disguised as a sailor or something), when my bass was nothing more than a defective neck. I can't quite tell - is he slapping that thing, or just holding it up by the strings? | ||

The fiddle cut on the bottom is resting on his thigh sorta . . . or at least I damn sure hope so. I know, I know, I'm scouting digital cameras as we speak, so you just never know. Though I'm gonna have the devil of a time finding a purple suit. J o e y | ||

Bob wrote "I'm not familiar with this guy or his music". That's Lee Rocker of the Stray Cats, the group that made Brian Setzer famous. I would imagine you remember hearing: We're gonna rock this town, rock it inside out We're gonna rock this town, make 'm scream and shout Nice looking bass! | ||
