So I attended the RAH show June 1st. What still really stands out for me is that MK must have played the most flawless rendition of SOS I have heard in a LONG time. Wow. Other than that, great show. Nice to have heard Going Home with full band and sax (just wish he'd play it with the Les Paul instead of the Strat/Schecter  but you can't have everything can you), and Dug Up A Diamond. Ruth Moody was lovely. Having been back at the RAH was awesome too, as was meeting some old friends... Looking forward to Frankfurt and Bad Mergentheim now. Really, REALLY want to hear Yon Two Crows. He can drop anything else instead, I don't care!!  ;D

For Going Home it would be his 2003 Fender Strat. :)

Glad you enjoyed it.

to be more accurate, it is ONE of his  several 2003 sig strats.
It's not the same used on WII, going home, postcards or Seattle.
He has gor at least 3, maybe more
