Subject:Tony - Nice Rig ! ! ! !

Tony,

Man, you possess some killer gear! You da man! Please hook us up
with some photos of the chopped A100, multiple Leslies and other
gear. I would love to drool over your rig. In case you don't know
about it, this forum has a files section in which you can upload
small images:

http://groups.yahoo.com/group/CloneWheel/files/Rigs/

Please give us pictures!!! You can check out the other members'
rigs in this section. No one has quite as much cool stuff as you,
so please share.

It sounds like you have some good stuff happening. Does your band
have a website? I would like to hear some MP3s.

Thanks.

Regards,
Eric
