Yes, you do and yes, you should. Except, I'm not up in MeenaSOHta much anymore. Mostly hanging around Cincy these days.

The Mighty Terraza misses you :P .

Yep. Was under a non-compete in the Twin Cities and the Ms. got a great offer in Cincy. So, we got the heck outta Dodge.

The house in Blaine is up for sale, if you know of anyone interested.

We just had the first David Gilmour gear forum barn jam over here, it was so succesful we already booked next year. The idea being unshamelessly stolen from here of course.

My HH VS100 musician with Fane Crescendos sounded brilliant by the way, first of me getting it, can't wait to put the Hiwatt through them.
