Rik is using the YCS50 from Traynor and Dave Dunlop is using the YCS90.  I have been thinking about buying the YCS50...its under $1K new...


Hope you enjoy the video....

Jane, I am so jealous. I have never seen Rik and Dave perform together. I will just keep hoping for a west coast show someday. 

Take care,
Bill

yeah it was very special. there are so many gigs i wanna see and esp at that venue and i hardly ever get out so its hard to choose which to go to, but I'm gonna make sure i don't miss them again. The couple sitting at the same table as us had seen them 7 times
we were like 10 feet away max....

they drove down from Canada and also were doing a school thing and a guitar clinic the next day that i wish i had known about ahead of time.
Rik tells alot of jokes and was saying how the border guard was singing Triumph songs to him etc.

I wrote to Rik via facebook and the woman who runs that page for him said they are going to upload the version of Ordinary Man from that night

 


How cool is it to see him at a club like that and to be that close?
I  remember having to use binoculars to see him with Triumph. 

That is one of those shows that will stay with you forever.  I see why you wanted to see them again.
He is so hilarious.  It's part comedy and music, ha ha! 

Jane, Ordinary Man is actually my favorite Triumph song.  So I am thrilled they will be posting that on his FB page. 

Jane, thank you so much for this smile
