Charlie and Shari met my wife and I in Houston for a killer ZZ Top/Bad Company/Cheaptrick weekend. Due to the Kossoff Burst, Paul Rodgers and Simon Kirke reunion being covered by Guitar Magazine we can't share all the pics until the article is released. But thanks to Charlie, we have some killer photos for the magazine. Here are some random shots by all of us, plus some good sunny photos Charlie took out back of the hotel Sunday morning. I must say, we did get some funny looks from the passer by'ers. Had a great time with great friends.

That's awesome!

Question - if you're traveling with that guitar, why not utilize a chainsaw case or something similar, to save wear and tear from the original case, or does it not matter?

I usually do transport it in a protector case. But in this case, no pun intended, the original case was nearly as important as the guitar to the reunion. :salude

Very cool. :dude:

It's nice to see Rick looking happy and healthy. His parents owned a music store when he was a teenager.....do the math on his age......uh...yeah there was nice stuff then.:laugh2: That guy knows guitars for sure.


EDIT --- After a li'l more perusal of the first photo it looks to me there is another photo,above the headstock on the table --- That's Paul and Simon on a couch with that guitar isn't it?

You and Simon on a couch with it currently. Very nice.
