Shame, that Poltergeist night at the Kazimier was something special. Quite like the look of the acoustic bass, probably out of my reach though.

Has anyone notice the date of the auction?
pretty much the anniversary date of their 1st show t Eric's Club in '78
a coincidence?

Les is moving to Australia according to an interview Mac did a few days ago in Brazil, so that may be the reason behind letting all these things go.
