Why are you using that poor SG as firewood in the second pic?  ???

As long as you're not sitting on those spurs I find that pic self-defeating!

 "Hey Mark how many different T-birds do you have? and in what colours? or have we seen them all?"

There are 5 that I admit too currently, at least 2 more to add this year. I don't have a current group shot, been meaning to do that, I'll try to this weekend *if* its not raining (Seattle). Compared to Uwe's squadron's I'm afraid it's a humble collection  :sad:
 This black one is a '77 that George (Old Man C) sold to me a little while back, its neck's been broken and repaired, stock paint, lots of mojo........my main stage bass right now, beyond badass in black and chrome  :)
 
 


 Jeez, lookit all that redneck beer crap behind me!

Nice pics Chris.

So you didn't use the Orange?
I see an SVT II Pro with 810 cab (which is pretty cool!  ;) )

I could chose between bringing my own Orange + 4x10 (which meant we needed a third car, cos we also brought our own tech and VJ) or using the SVT and 8x10. No hard decision...
