Early Munji gig.

This was back in '77. No, I'm not the drummer. I had been playing bass for maybe a month. That was my '65 P-bass. The drummer was 16 at the time.

The trouble with gigs nowadays is not enough lecterns and fake grapes.

And I have much more respect for Peavey now. I always thought their pointy logo had something to with hair metal, but I guess I was wrong.

Huh. I (mistakenly) assumed you were black.

As for the PV, that looks like the column 210. I converted one into a cool little 1x10 bass cab!

Nice fro man. Jealous I could never pull that off.

I miss chicks with Twiggy hairstyles and huge fake eyelashes.

Wow, so Danny Bonaduce really did play drums!

Great pic. Everyone in the band is so different it looks like you were photshopped together.

It's the avatar. I find that I make personal appearance assumptions about a number of TBers based off of their avatar. Some of you are really weird looking if I'm right.

Great photo!

Is playing a gig at the one month point like a curse, or a blessing?
