Me & Sandra Jean (my mom) w/ my first guitar!

Lots of folks made this face upon first contact w/ a Floyd Rose

That's me w/ my G&L L-1000 & my good friend, Duff Tuell w/ his Gibson Les Paul Custom around 1982

Playing my 1967 Gibson SG Jr. with Perfect Strangers - nice hair, huh?

At my apartment in Topeka with my mom & Friday (I miss them both)

Playing my Ibanez USA ATK 5-string w/ The Rude Awakening (God I hated that boy band microphone - yech!)

Another RA shot alongside Garret w/ his Fender Paisely Strat Reissue

Yes that bass WAS heavy! But it sounded heavy, too.

Hammin' it up with Ephid the Troll King - Behold the power of beer!

I guess someone thought I needed a bunch of pics from this gig!

The Rude Awakening - Party gods or axis of evil? You decide.

Clockwise from the top - Greg Kleinsasser (keyboards, guitar), Chuck Case (drums), Garret Hansen (guitar) & Me (bass). We all sang our balls off.

What a rude bunch!

Singin' & playin' with the RA just prior to exiting the band.

Playing the "Little Lady" with my good friends, PowerPlay at the Sunbird sometime in '02

Another shot with my #1. Old "Red" is looking on behind me.

Scooter & The Kickstands official promo shot 2002. Jason, Colin & Me.

Nothing like your name up in lights! Sadly, Character's is gone now. RIP

Your name on a Bud banner - priceless.

Here I am beating up on my Peavey Classic 50 & Fender Twin RI.

I seem to always be seen with this guitar, much like my nose!

I made Jason buy this bass because I THOUGHT I didn't like fretless. I was wrong. Sorry, man!

Yeah, sometimes those road gigs get a little crazy.

Kickstands portrait - Me, Colin Kriss & Jason LeFebvre

Playing my PRS Santana SE with EMG pickups at our final show in Wisconsin 2004

Well, sometimes you just gotta give some practical advice.

My mentor and good friend Mr. Pete Galindo with my guitar. Thanks, Pete!

Damn, I actually look like I'm working here! Sidewinder's 2003

Once again that guitar just sticks to me like glue - Sidewinder's 2003

It's rare to catch me smiling naturally. Must be that guitar!

Photo session 2002 - That guitar is actually Pete's Galindo Scootercaster. Used on "...goodbye" on my first record.

Promo photo 2002 - Angie took this one on a bridge near our beloved apartment in Sioux Falls, SD. They recently leveled it in favor of a car dealer

Cohiba at Atlantis - There IS no substitute.

One of many trips to the Rockin' Rollercoaster at Disney's Hollywood Studios. Great ride.

Now THAT's a big guitar! (Disney's All-Star Music Resort)

And another BIG guitar! (Disney's All-Star Music Resort)

Wednesday & "Lurch". She's SO funky!

My cat Spook (20 years old this year) with "The Little Lady"

Okay, admit it. She's cute.

A collection of pastels - '95 Fender LE Strat w/ EMG DG-20 set, "Purple", The Firewall Scootercaster & Pete's Scootercaster

My 1st NGM Systems pedalboard with the Kickstands.

I went to this arrangement when the Korg delays let me down & added George L's cable.

After the Korgs came back I rearranged again and used this setup for the duaration of the band.

Here is the board with my Peavey Classic 50 212 and Fender '65 Reissue Twin Reverb perched on their cases by NGM Systems of Houston, TX.

Another shot of "The Boys"

Still another shot of "The Boys". God, I miss that Peavey. GREAT amp.

Monolithic, wouldn't you say?

All that's missing is ME!

Here is Jason's first rig. It soon went in favor of an Eden stack that blew up in Brainerd, MN.

Here is the power in FRONT of the throne. TAMA & Paiste & ddrum, oh, my!!

My CC rig set up at Mad Studios - 2006

Modded Sovtek MiG 50 w/ Randall 2x12 fitted with Celestion Vintage 30s and my Fender Deluxe 85

Recording "When Is The Moon Right" for Caribbean Cowboy at Mad Studios in 2006. Notice the purple Strat again!
