Damn, I tried to keep my phone in my pocket! :D

Oh well..

BTW Neil alternated between a black w/white binding Squier HH Tele w/Bigsby (in this clip) and blue Fender Tele w/SCs & Bigsby. GREAT show at the Pacific Amphitheater.

He is a talented player. I am surprised he's not playing his '68 Guild Starfire.

He never pulled it out. Only an acoustic 12 string for one sit-down, the rest was the black Squier H/H and blue/green SC Fender Tele, both with Bigsbys.

One more that my phone must've jumped outta my pocket and recorded - also with the black double-bound H/H Squier :D

I've never seen either of them & looking forward to their upcoming, local show! I only know Neil by his favourable reputation...any guy who plays Telecasters & Starfires has great taste!

by far, one of the most under-appreciated players in rock history...the guy is really something...love the way he plays.

Love Pat B.

Hubby ? Always sounded generic to me (like the bar-band rhythm tone in that clip). Seems embarrassing to have his name on the marquee.

He co-wrote Promises in the Dark. And...that's it.


My opinion only

They played a New Years Eve show two years ago - that guitar is incredible. And he's an excellent player.

I just saw a Dan Rather interview (his interview show) with PB and NG. Very interesting dynamics and roles between PB and NG. I agree he can play that guitar.

Sad news...they've cancelled Pat & Neil's local, 35th Anniversary show...Dennis DeYoung is the substitute with his Stynx thang...the good news is maybe Cartman will join him!

Dennis DeYoung opened for the Benatar show I saw (above). Did a really nice Styx set & has a great band backing him. Sorry to hear Benatar/Giraldo canceled for your show.

I saw them a couple of weeks before the eye injury. It was my 5 year old daughter's first concert. She loved it... The songs were great the performance was great and yes lots of teles.
