Maybe even with a few hinges so it's not really broke but just unhinged and easily folds back together like a Transformer. Good plan...although in his case it didn't really matter as sadley he died suddenly a couple of days later. It was their last gig Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was their last gig I had no idea of the death, due to I never heard of the band before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My mate who lives and plays there is mates with them so I got backstage and said to the rhythm guitarist , great set man but I was saddened that you smashed up a nice guitar? Did you not notice? He said, just before, I swapped it out for a cheap and nasty guitar. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also was known to strut and pose for the ladies don't you know. Later I would just smile suggestively. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slightly off topic, I wasted an evening at a Mavericks concert in London. I couldn’t see where the high harmonies were coming from as the bass player and drummer were obviously not the source. I moved across to the side of the.auditorium (standing only) and saw keyboard player Jerry Dale McFadden hidden just off the side of the stage supplying backing vocals. At that time the band was still officially a trio. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
