We are on our way...



Actually, my counterparts in Renton handle the small stuff. All "narrow body" or "single aisle" stuff is worked out of Renton. I'm in Everett, where we only work on "widebody" (no, not Thom...) "twin aisle" stuff.

The fuselages don't look all that damaged to me. I bet they are entirely repairable. It would be far less work than on a finished airplane, since since they aren't "stuffed" - full of wiring, plumbing, and interiors.

I did the factory tour at Everett. Amazing. The Museum Of Flight was incredible as well.

The reason the water is so murky is they are using too much horse.

Having went to Arcadia High School, I'd heard about the band playing these parties years earlier (Dennis Sobolewski, Michael Anthony's little brother was in one of my classes). A buddy of mine, a huge Van Halen fan, also tried to crash Michael Anthony's wedding. Didn't make it through the front door of course.

I met a guy at a party on Sat. who had his own Marshall modded by the same guy who modded Eddie's back in the day. And now EVH and everyone who's had that amp in their shop claims that amp is bone stock. Who knows?

I just figured you might know. You're as much an eddie freak as i. Perhaps more. I always heard he cranked up the voltageon the Marshall. But its really just his fingers. I had a 5150 half stack for a while and it was just madness to sound good without going deaf.
