THE FOUR INCH STUDS
Company Picnic
June 3, 2005

Here again at our favorite venue - the parking lot in back of the office.  Finally we got tired of the sunburns and rented a small tent.  Cozy, really.  L to R: David (guitar/vocals/ bandleader), Todd (bass), John (guitar/vocals), me (guitar/vocals).  Rick (drums) is hidden from view.

 

There's Rick!  For the gearheads: Dave plays a H/S/S Strat thru a BFSR, Todd plays a Peavey Cirrus thru a Carvin Cyclops bass combo, John plays his Ric thru a modern Fender combo and I've chosen this year to plug my Les Paul goldtop and Ibanez V thru my "Rockstar" rig (more on that below).

And here I am playing the V.

 

...and again with the V.  Also guest percussionist Wang.

 

This is the first show I've ever done with a wireless.  Fun.

 

This rig is a variation on my two-headed rig used previously.  The rack on top is what's new.  It holds a delay (didn't use it after all), wireless receiver and Hot Plate.  You can see the nylon strap I used to lock the whole thing together so the rack doesn't fall off the top.  For more details on this rig, see the June 4 show.  The red thing behind the LP's bridge is a raffle ticket.  I didn't win anything.
