|  | I'm a tumbler, born under punches | | Join Date: Aug 2006 Location: Northern California | | | Everyone likes to point to Sparky's classic bassline for "Hoogie Boogie Land" as a high point of their album, and rightfully so. But his work on Dream-Ing is at least as phenomenal if not more so. |

Epiphone moved production from their factory in China, to their factory in Hoogie Boogie Land. Only 300 were made. Each comes with a hardcase and a commemorative silly hat.

His left hand is just a blur. I'll try and slow it down on my computer to transcribe it, wish me luck. Wow.

Sparky on the other hand is a BASS GOD, and needs his own solo project.
