Guest pirateflynn Posted July 9, 2008 Posted July 9, 2008 I'll try to scare up a picture. My bands played mostly originals but a few covers were: Magic Power, Behind Blue Eyes, YYZ. Even, La Villa Strangiato ..... ya, that went over well at a wedding!
Brooks Posted July 9, 2008 Posted July 9, 2008 i love these threads! here's my "bad hair history", from grade school thru college (the "flock of meatballs" pic on the mid-right was my north texas student ID); 1985-1986-ish band; we did originals, plus priest, crue, rush, riot (not quiet), wasp, manowar, etc...
belgian Posted July 9, 2008 Posted July 9, 2008 Found one from the dark '70's : Still have that Yamaha
gfc55 Posted July 9, 2008 Posted July 9, 2008 What about the boots? LOL! Read my mind... Me too!!! ROTFLMAO I think I had a pair of Frye boots very much like those in the late 70's...
stobro Posted July 10, 2008 Posted July 10, 2008 My turn to play along. This isn't from my first gig- I'd been gigging off and on for 7 years by this time. But this is one of the few photos that I have access to. As I recall, it was an outdoor gig at the local junior college. Outdoors in APRIL. That explains the leather. I was always described as "Gavin's brother" in any sort of press, like there's never been siblings in the same band before. I just realized that I'm still using the same guitar strap!
Guest pirateflynn Posted July 10, 2008 Posted July 10, 2008 Hey, that Peavey bass looks familiar! I'm pretty sure my bandmate played one.
cmatthes Posted July 10, 2008 Posted July 10, 2008 I was always described as "Gavin's brother" in any sort of press, like there's never been siblings in the same band before. Heard that one before, Gavin's bro! It's Steve's brother...no, it's Steve...no...
belgian Posted July 10, 2008 Posted July 10, 2008 Skinny guy, skinny tie.......this one was taken in Germany in '86. I still have the '79 Sunburst, actually. The bass player has a very early Porsche-pearl-painted Warwick "Streamer" bass. That's a rare bird! I have other pix around and as soon as I get my scanner figured out, I'll post 'em. Touring in Germany ????
Thundernotes Posted July 10, 2008 Posted July 10, 2008 Touring in Germany ???? HA! No, I was living there. I was with the US Air Force in Germany from 1984 to 1988.
