i still dont know who he is. other than what i imagine what a wild west prospector says when he stubs his toe "oh dan fogleberg it"
If only there was some way to find out who this person was. :( Like, some way that would take less time than it takes to type out that you don’t know who a person is.

I know, I know, “okay boomer.”

Well, I’m genX, thankyouverymuch.

honestly. part of me likes the idea of keeping it a mystery. i'm now picturing this man who walks around in a robot suit who speaks like a prospector and sings songs about working on the space railroads. i'm pretty sure i'd rather think of him like that.

Not my cup of tea at all, but credit to him for (a) managing to have a reasonably successful/profitable music career, and (b) playing a Fender XII way before it was being drooled over by guitar forum nerds (like us).

Cheers,

A voice of reason on an internet forum... I greatly respect that.

Cheers mate, I'll buy you a beer if I ever get the chance!

The faded red in that 'burst had me wondering, and yes, it's a refin with changed tuners as well.
