Summer 2001

Randy Straka trying not to laugh ... as he takes this picture !

The story behind this photo is interesting ...

Waiting to leave the hotel, Chris Farmer decided to put his

bass guitar on the bus just before we all left.

Having carried the guitar across the parking lot ... he realized that the

bus driver was not there and the bus door was locked.

Rather than carry his guitar back to the hotel again,

Chris decided to hide it underneath the bus while he went looking for the driver.

Needless to say ... the bus driver returned to the bus without seeing Chris Farmer

and was going to drive the bus around the corner to the main entrance.

Not knowing there was a bass guitar hidden under the bus ...

I think you can guess the rest of the story !
