The late Chris Squire playing a Gibson Thunderbird non reverse.
 
So many questions

Can I join if I don't have any strings with purple silks but am willing to lie about it?
Does applying blue magic marker to red silks count?
If I wear purple silk lingerie can I join?
At the link, even purple underwear is apparently sufficient. No pics please of you showing off your new found eligibility.
 
I considerate myself fortunate to've seen the original 7 3X in person.
I recall some here saying he thought they sounded sappy when he ran across them in person once when he was young.:D I wouldn't dare mention his name because he's moving back to this side of the country and don't want his ire directed at me.:smug: But it was a great, funny and memorable story from his youth--and I'm sure his appreciation has grown over the years.
