The lefty guitar dude is the amazing Mark Bonilla, who later was in the Keith Emerson Band.

Yep. Knew that.

That was a big surprise! Thanks.

Yes. That was awesome! Thanks!

And the keyboard player is none other than Sheryl "The Bitch" Crow.

I can still remember the Toy Matinee gig at The Cabaret in San Jose (RIP). Happier days, even if the unfortunate 90s rocker fashion trend of black trenchcoats was in full glory.

I don't consider him "amazing". He sounds like a run of the mill hard rock shredder.

Did she do something to upset you?

Yeah, guys like Kevin Gilbert and Keith Emerson always play with run of the mill rockers who shred.

If only we all could be so run of the mill, that in itself would be "amazing".

Keith Emerson wasn't exactly someone that lots of people seemed to want to work with or he didn't want to work with lots of people, just based upon how little he collaborated with other musicians.

Carl Palmer managed to get Steve Howe, something Keith Emerson never succeeded in doing.

Ah very good. I'll jot this down for my "Internet Quote of the Week!"
