Glad you like the vintage photos from my early 80s parties---I've got more, including rare flashback photos of your St. Louis band, the Blue Obscure, from 1984. What are you up to these days? Still playing music?

I'm down to a DOD Flashback Fuzz, a Rat, a Maxon overdrive (generic Tube Screamer, used for a clean boost) a Boss 6 band footswitch EQ, and a Morley volume pedal. I sure would like to have a Memory Man.
