Went to a very small club tonight to see Jefferson Starship, or at least Paul Kantner and some other guys, along with a fantastic girl singer named Cathy Richardson, who we know a little bit. Kantner played nothing but full bling Guild 12 strings. He had 4 of them lined up, along with a tech who had to tell him which key was which.

Show was opened by a older guy named Jack Traylor, who was terrific. He apologized in advance because he'd misplaced his guitar somewhere today, and was playing a borrowed one. He proceeded to pick up a very nice D-25, which appeared to be Guss's twin brother and play the crap out of it.

Great evening just 5 blocks from home.

And here he is now ! He sings "Little Hobo" about 3 minutes in.

Great little hobo song; one of my favorites to play and sing late in the evening for introspection. And that D-25 is a dead ringer for mine. Sounds almost as good, too.

Thanks for sharing,
Joe

Thanks Joe. I'm gonna pay close attention to this little club he played at and hope he comes back soon. I see Michael(the other guy in the video) around the neighborhood on occasion.Hopefully I can get the inside scoop.
