                      | Tim really needs to bring some distinctively TR flavor to his stage presence with DMB. A gas mask, or the Rasta Wig or the antenna or glow light goggles... that would be cool. Not that the playing he does isn't cool enough.. I'd just like to see a little of his unmistakeable personality.. 
 As for his playing, some TR/TR3 songs in his solos would be cool.. a little Wind just blew the door wide open or Kaballah in the middle of a wicked guitar solo would be cool. It seems Bela always throws in Sojourn of Arjuna, no reason Tim can't throw in his own!
 
 It's like he's trying to be respectful of DMB's stage, but I don't think they'd mind.

                      | It would be kewl if he brought out the gasmask.  However, that is just one side of Tim.  He tends to be a little more conservative with his atire when he is with Dave and/or DMB.  Even so, there is an aura that Tim brings onstage, that it changes everything. |

                      | Truth. When Tim is with the DMB he seems very humble. I noticed that when he enters the stage, he enters behind Carter's drumms and leaving the scene the same way. With TR3 he feels more loose doing his thing.

                      | Yeah, I want him to open up. I didn't go to any of the Dave & Friends shows, but Tim seemed to be a little more loose at those... (playing with his teeth, for example). |

 I don't know if I'd call a head of long crazy Ozzy-hair with a purple/black sparkly shirt and, what I like to call, chain-mail pants conservative.

                      | I too was thinking the other day how neat it would be if he threw a TR3 song into one of his solos with DMB. :) |

                      | Since when did he start using that Les Paul? 
 I have to admit I don't pay super close attention to his electric guitars these days...but I don't recall that one.

                      | Yep, that's a NEW Les Paul he has.  And by the looks of it, it is a Standard, and I am going to guess a '60s Neck.  It's not a Custom due to the design on the neck and headstock.  It's not a Classic since it doesn't have uncovered pickups (unless he changed them for some reason, which I would wonder why since the pickups on Gibson Les Pauls are great).  Also, it's not a Studio since it has white binding.  I would also guess the '60s neck version because that is just one hell of a nice neck. |

                      | That is a nice les paul standard with the sunburst looking color, I also heard he is playing a darker strat, not the orange one or the yellow B Rig. Anyone confirm that, I have heard from people he has been playing. Wonder why he got new axes? More for the arsenal, NICE!! |

                      | Yeah, I did see a picture of a black strat too. I wonder if he still has the Telecaster, or the Gibson Gothic from the Chaos View era? |

                      | He played the V in Charlotte.. but only for a couple of songs. Mostly the Strat and the Les Paul. Atlanta N2, the V didn't come out at all. I Loooove the Flying V. |

 Since he's not an 'official' dmb member, i don't think they'd want him trying to stand out by wearing a gas mask, i and i don't think he'd do that to them

 I NEVER said it MUST have a 60s neck.  I said this, "I would also guess the '60s neck version because that is just one hell of a nice neck."
 
 Notice that word: GUESS.  Guessing is just based on assumption.  I think it's a nice neck, so I would guess it is a '60s.  I could be completely wrong, which is possible since it was a GUESS.  I didn't claim to know that it was a '60s, or MUST be a '60s.  Read what I actually type before being a dick to me.

                      | I was just looking at some of the pics on the DMB Road page.  I like how Tim is wearing a Fur Peace Ranch shirt on 04/29! |

 Tim really needs to bring some distinctively TR flavor to his stage presence with DMB. A gas mask, or the Rasta Wig or the antenna or glow light goggles... that would be cool. Not that the playing he does isn't cool enough.. I'd just like to see a little of his unmistakeable personality..
 
 As for his playing, some TR/TR3 songs in his solos would be cool.. a little Wind just blew the door wide open or Kaballah in the middle of a wicked guitar solo would be cool. It seems Bela always throws in Sojourn of Arjuna, no reason Tim can't throw in his own!
 
 It's like he's trying to be respectful of DMB's stage, but I don't think they'd mind.
 
 
 
 Since he's not an 'official' dmb member, i don't think they'd want him trying to stand out by wearing a gas mask, i and i don't think he'd do that to them
 
 
 
 I'd agree with that if he had whipped some crazy prop out on stage at a DMB show, and then you never saw it again after that show, but I think Tim is the one who is trying to keep his antics in line with DMB stuff. He's a respectful kind of guy.
 
 I wish he'd play with his teeth or something.. that would be cool without him bringing 'props' into it.

 He did that on Watchtower last summer.
 
 EDIT: I also seem to remember him doing it with Dave & Friends... on "Fire" maybe? Anyone remember?

                      | Can anyone identify what kind of sunglasses those are? I am thinking Ray-bans but I'm not sure? |
