I knew Frampton wasn't quite pretty poster boy he used to be, but I think it suits him fine, because now he has a chance that people will notice what a tremendous guitar player he has always been. I suspect that he didn't play "I'm In You" partly because it doesn't allow him to show that side of his music...coupled with his statement on "Behind the Music" that that time was a very bad one for him, professionaly he was a superstar but his private life was falling to pieces (I think the lady he wrote that song for left him feeling hurt & betrayed...I can assure you, songwriters never like revisiting the love songs written for the bitch that screwed them over)...

Lil, you didn't hafta get a pic of the bass player just for me, but I do appreciate the thought...bass players get overlooked a lot, but I also see myself as a pretty fair guitar picker too...which is why I had to backtrack when I saw the last pic of the whole band, when I saw what I thought were double-neck guitars...turns out they were just doing the old Steve Howe (of Yes) trick of having the acoustic on a stand while keeping the electric strapped on & ready to play on cue...
