here's one more of me and Joe!

You guys shoulda heard Nicky's solo when he jammed with Joe. He just walked up to the edge of the stage, turned it up to Patent Pending, and SMOKED. :shock:
It was a special night of music for a special friend.
And now that special friend has a MKII C+!!! Yay!
Yes that counts for something! Paul Simon is brilliantgts said:I've landed in that Sanford, FL airport a few times. Imagine so close yet so far.
In the backstage area I stood 5 feet away from Paul Simon at a benefit in NYC once upon a time. Does that count for, or amount to anything?
The coolest thing ( besides my wife patiently and lovingly watch me gush over this guy and at being at Boogie) was the fact that he told me how his table top had been replaced twice because of the grooves in the top where the transformers wear it out! Then he proceeded to have me watch while he whacked my tubes ( sorry...that sounds soooo wrong!) while we watched the oscilliscope..."see, the bottom of this ones ( wave) a bit square"... anyway, like I said my wife was pretty sweet to let me take all the time I wanted, and I was willing to take all the time he was willing to spare!Mongo1 said:That's a great pic.
You know that's a shop that gets a lot of use. It's not pristine and manicured, but cluttered and worn from years of working the magic we love. I'd love to be able to see the master with my amp on his table...

When we demo-ed the updated amp he put it in a funky old cabinet with a 14 year old EV speaker...man that speaker sounded sweet!

If your wife only knew how many of us would have paid her to trade places with her...

I bet Nick played/ tested the amp in the room next door to Mike's 'office'.
It's about 10x10 and has a few speakers cabs in it and maybe an amp or two as well.
