I know @PillO thinks this is lame and the ‘novelty wears off fast’ but I never tire of New Mexico. Took this picture as I was going back to the hotel. No filters, editing or cropping. Just love it here! One more show on this tour and it’s been a blast.

Lame and need for stimulation are different. I liked the big hole in the ground, but it just sits there and does nothing.

As a Falls resident..... it's not worth it.... if there was more stuff to do around there, it'd be a different story. But all there is is the falls and casinos.

Strangely, I can watch falling water and fire for hours. Quite relaxing.

Perhaps it is my cat-like reflexes?
 
I played the VP with my my main cover band at an outdoor party last night. The rotosounds have calmed down a little bit. And I didn’t wear earplugs, cause the band is not really loud. So I could really hear the Sweet, FAT tone!! Yowza! It pairs very nicely with the PF-50T.

I only hit my mic twice with the headstock and did not clock Emile the singer with it:thumbsup:

I was a little concerned about getting the right sound for stuff like Long Train Running or Domino, but that worked. My daughter commented at how articulate the fast walking was in Caravan (Chicago version)
Digging in for Separate Ways and getting gritty was a blast!
Mama Mia/Dancing Queen - no problem. Folks were shaking their booties (women cannot help themselves and the men follow)

And then there’s a few tunes where I use a pick:
Sledgehammer was MONSTROUS with chorus and octave.
Same for Call Me Al with no effects. The guitarist had a tech issue through the first half of the song and it didn’t matter;)

I could keep gushing....The only question now is what machine heads to get. The stock Wilkinson’s are a bit grindy and I could use a Detuner.

Gotoh Hemolites. They make a vintage replacement. I forget the model. I’ll try and find it.
 
Ok, Resolites.
