Well, I just won another one from good ole 1059.

Here's the loot:
1. 4 fourth row tickets to tonight's Night Ranger, Styx, and REO Speedwagon show.
2. Guitar autographed by Styx and REO - if they hold true to form it will be an cheapo Epiphone SG Special, but since it will be a wall hanger who cares.

oh yeah and
3. Get to go on stage and sing backup with Styx and REO when they do they joint single "Can't Stop Rockin". I will, of course, attempt to wear my forum T-shirt.

Now if only this run of luck would carry over into the lottery....

Wow, Great giveaway. Congrats.

Congrats TC!! Some cool stuff! Would be nice to see some pics of you on stage with the forum shirt!

thats really sweet! you are one lucky man.

Quick update. Whale of a night, had a great time! Will post pix later when I get some time. 3 great bands all having a good time and getting to go on stage with them was wild!

Lots of nice guitars too - both Gibsons and Fenders.

Couple of highlights -
Brad Gillis of Night Ranger plays an old SuperStrat or HM strat. So much for "You can't do hard rock with a Fender".
Tommy Shaw came out with Night Ranger and did a Damn Yankees tune with Jack Blades.
Kevin Cronin of REO played an olympic white strat and a beautiful butterscotch tele.
This was my first time seeing Dave Amato instead of Gary Richrath playing guitar for REO and I was very, very impressed. He had at least 2 Les pauls with standard trem and one with bigsby. He played a couple of strats and - he had a gorgeous doubleneck that was a tele on top and esquire on bottom. I have asked Mike Eldred about this beauty...
Brad Paisley and Martina McBride came out and sang with REO on "Roll With the Changes".
Tommy Shaw played his Fender 12 for a bit. And JY played a couple of nice strats as well as his blue clone.

Pictures later, I promise - and they did let me onstage with my Forum Tee.

My other guitar is a Strat.

Yes indeed, the basis for my question. That was one sweet sounding instrument, I do declare.
