    Not a bass player, but I got to see Dickey Betts play Stormy Monday solo on a 12 string bass while the rest of the Allmans were taking a break. That was sweet.

    anyone else see Mike Watt & his Wife play before Firehose at the Perpetual Park Party at U.H. back in '92? They played and then the Firehose concert was moved to a small cafe (I forget which one). She plays bass too.

    Yes I was the original drummer but got kicked out of the band right bf that RHP & Idaho show AND the Catherine Wheel show, gutted to put it lightly! I went on to play w.HK the singer in a few other things since BotM but that was a very hard lesson learned!
