Thumbs up Fully converted!

We had a great gig on Friday 13th, and our second guitarist Jay surprised us with his newest acquisition - an original Dargie Delight Silo Special, SSS piezo. Putting the gray matter in my skull to work over the weekend, and doing some digging on the forum, Jay got this guitar from the guy who got it from fingbeagles, who got it from Rob in Australia. Small world of Dargies! Jay has been playing other brands for years and hot-rodding them or building Frankensteins, but when I put an SSS Silo Special in his hands a year or two ago he said he had to get one. Man oh man did he make out big!

I'm working on the audio/video from the gig and if it comes out well I will upload some of our wacky originals to youtube and post them in this thread later tonight.

Triple assault...



PS the D2 Gold Roller rules in a gig!

Tell him to get that grin of his face, it's highly confronting for Dargie left-outs like me . Seriously: looks like an amazing couple of axes on stage! Once you go EBMM...

Killer Pete! That's great.

Get those skanky chicks that like to show off in front of the stage to wear green thongs and have yourself a Dargie fest

The thongs they wear are black and the girls hand-embroidered our band logo on the front. Not sure if they would go for green but I can ask!

Touche ... well you can't ask for much more than that (though they seemed willing to give).
