AT> Wow, I sure would have enjoyed it.
After reading the reviews I'm kind of regretting not going, but it
was in a big stadium and I've gone off those sort of large scale
'events' in recent years.
AT> Does Randy Bachman still play well?
Yes. Very much so...
AT> Is he still using a Strat?
I don't know. I've seen him use Strats and Les Pauls, and I recently
saw him sitting in on a Burton Cummings performance playing what looked
like a Gibson 335 or 355.
AT> Can he still play jazz?
Oh, yeah. He even had some new bits for the rhythm part on "Undun".
AT> He's one of my most admired players....
AT> Randy Bachman played with such mastery that from my listening
AT> perspective, he would take me up and down the fingerboard while

AT> disoriented.
Hehe... I know what you mean. Especially some of his jazzier stuff
which is still way beyond me. ;-\
