| Most recent, Van Morrison (first stop (SF) of his country-style tour, and again last Fall in Berkeley). Fascinating. Earlier this month saw Merle Haggard, and the most interesting facet of that show ... |

| Van Morrison, Masonic, 3-3-06. Killer show, and I can't remember when I saw the Man play so much guitar and sax. |

| So does anyone know if Robben is going over to see Cream? Seems likely, if he can get the time off. |

I've always wanted to try pickups from SK Guitars and Vintage Vibe Guitars. Those guys will wind them according to what tone you're after, and guarantee your satisfaction.
