So far we've seen Alain with two Tele's. Wonder if this indicates a preference or based on some of his comments, perhaps his Stratocaster collection is too 'collectable' to gig with. :wink:



I simply use anything but Strats as the Lead Guitar (I'm on the rythm side for this kind of Show) plays Strats, so to avoid a mixed up of sounds.

Alain,
that appears to be some show. Is the band still going? can we have any details on the band?
I'd love to hear you fella's, my love of european music has grown throughout the last 5 years to the point that i'm listening to hardly anything else. Sadly my collection is getting quite starved of new material. As its based around bands we played with and met during european mini tours.
One of my most memorable gigs was Paris. A near derelict school that the local anarchists had commandeered and turned into a venue.

Well ...
We re-formed a band which we started 45 years ago, performing mostly in Normandy, including in the former USAF airbase over there.
Now all retired,we are performing again but at a slow pace. One show per semester.:roll:
Our very last show will take place in Sept 2009.
We have videos of our last shows, I'll try to give you a link.
But I do play Shadows music and there, there is no retirement :wink:

Any english dates Alain?

I strongly suspect your days of 'seat of your pants' touring and all the 'roughing it' thats included, is far in the past. So i wont offer you any gigs, but i would like to see that show.

Hi Nikininja,
Sept '09 will be our next and last show.
The venue will be in Normandy where we performed so many times.
But there is a time to retire while still standing up :wink:

Hi Alainlafrance!
Hope to get some advices. I have a HBM signature Squier, but I'm looking for a Customshop made. Hard to get... Are you aware of the articel at guitarmania? http://www.guitar-mania.com/fender-cust ... p-180.html

Would you consider this as a choice number two...? I think this years 50th Anniversary model would be to expensive...

Hope to hear your thoughts!

Best regards
Fredrik from Norway
