Wow! What an amazing photo of all you guitar wielding Hankies! A fine testament to the unique power of Instrumentals and music of the Shads. Brilliant!

Rob :D

Kid you not, Rob, it was like a guitar shop in there last night!
Everything from Roger1's AC30 Heritage (awesome!!) to a Pinnacle to various other Fender and Vox amps - and the guitars - Keiths genuine 40th Anniversary HBM, my Brason copy, Gren,s' CS HBM (or is that ANOTHER 40th Anniversary?), 2 Burns HBM's and various other Strats including the (in)famous Ecca "Cakeocaster".
ShadowMusic is alive and well in the West MIdlands.

Rosemary. I use my dog as my avatar. He's good looking and he knows it, whereas my wife uses photos of me to frighten the birds from her allotment.

Individual photos will be posted soon.

Yes - a very busy night, as you can see.
Ecca - we DID reduce the tunes from 3 to 2. You didn't notice because you had your knees covered. :o
Loved every minute of it - Mick The Marmaliser's novel rendition of "Hawaii 5-0" will live with me a LONG time!! :shock: :o :?:
cheers
Ian


Leave Marmaliser alone :evil: He's only just started to play. When he's been playing as long as Ecca he'll be... erm... about 125

Anyway here's Mick's rendition: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vnNc6iJyWzo

What no bassplayers in the photo ?

Can I join, but only when I've learnt to play Roger Allcocks basslines to Beautiful Heart ?
