Too Cool!
I remember that we worked up the “15 songs in 15 minutes” montage to play for some prospective clients. David Harris really dug it and asked if we could do it again , at a following gig. Mike Bayouth brought three cameras,directed, and shot the clip at the gig. If you look close at the end of “California Sun”, you can see Arn-Dog and I get caught on a cord for a second……

[...] Lil’ Elmo fans will remember Arnold as the Cosmos’ bass player through a large chunk of the Vegas years and he appears on the Definitive Video. [...]

Hey cool vids! You know, I actualy have a couple from back in the early 90′s, back when you guys played the El Dorado at Hot August Nights. I remember sitting near the stage and seeing Spike crawling around with a high heel on his pomp?? LOL Something like that….anyways, cool memories. Larry, somewhere in my boxes of pics I have one of me and you in the casino, right before you went to go play. That was some BIG hair. LOL =)
