Either you are LOTS younger than me or else you were much ahead of your time, since you are a Ms. Croc. There were not too many girls in kid bands back when I was doing it (I be a seasoned 44).

Was waaaay ahead of my time... (-:

Reminds me of something kind of funny all of a sudden. When I was living in Montreal, there was this really straight looking couple living in the house backing against my parents' place. Guess they would have been about ...uhm...32 or so. Anyhow, I used to look out of the window of my room and look into one of the rooms in their basement and I saw what I THOUGHT was a poster with a big shot of a Gibson SG on it... One Saturday afternoon I happened to mention seeing it to our neighbour and he said... "Hey, come and see"... So we went downstairs and heck, it was a REAL guitar and not a picture of one... EEEEEeeeekkk!!!

The guy had a small amp downstairs and he played rock-&-roll like Chuck Berry, etc... HAAAA!!!! We had fun goofing around on his guitar showing off our best licks... It was a pretty nice guitar... probably one of the earliest SGs...

Always kind of funny about the guitars that you find hidden away in somebody's house... A bit of a gas to visit someone and find something like a Stratocaster leaning in the corner somewhere... The "toy" that someone always wanted as a kid and then sprung for when they finally started making real $$$... (-:
