A dandy Santa - love the bow tie/scarf/ascot.

 I also love how Mr Hill looks like Neil Young now:

 I just treasure the fact that I got to see them at all, that they came to and played almost in my backyard is amazing........
They were  F#%&ing LOUD and so much fun. I'll love them forever!

Got to see them a few times, but on my doorstep, so to speak...

Not heard anything about Jim Lea here...?
