Whatever happened to Trevor Charles Howell?

Meaning the imbecile who pushed Frank off the stage on December 10, 1971. What happened to him after that? Did he get thrown in jail?

About Stevie Ray's last show

His last show sure ended with a bang. Sweet Home Chicago, with Eric Clapton, Robert Cray, Buddy Guy, and his brother Jimmie. (Note: the guy with the green Strat in the photo is Phil Palmer; I think he just plays rhythm) I'd like to know if anybody'd give me timestamps on who plays which solo (meaning when it's SRV, when it's Clapton, when it's Buddy, when it's Robert, and when it's Jimmie)

Does any footage of Stevie Ray's final concert exist?

The one that was held the day before his death. There's audio of it, but I wonder if any footage exists. I hear that there were cameras there that night. Maybe the footage is locked away?

Did Angus ever record with anything other than an SG?

I saw some photos of him with other guitars. Of course, we all know that he rarely played anything other than an SG, but I also saw a photo of him in the early days with a Gibson L6S, and also a Les Paul Custom during the Back in Black era. He also played an ES-335 while they were playing with the Stones. What about the studio? I heard that he once recorded with a Les Paul, but erased that track and re-recorded the track with his SG, but is that the only case when he recorded with something other than an SG? Or did he record absolutely all of AC/DC material with SGs?

About Sting's basses?

I heard that his main bass that he used on all the Police albums is a Fender Jazz Bass, and that he also used a fretless P-Bass and a fretless Ibanez Musician bass as well. I also heard that he overdubbed some bass tracks with a vintage Precision Bass (not the '51 style one he uses a lot more recently), and also used a Steinberger L2 on some bits of Synchronicity. As for the white Spector NS-2 he played during the Synchronicity tour, he just played it live, not in the studio. Am I missing anything, or did I get everything?

Is David still on good terms with his former Talking Heads bandmates?

Just wondering. Of course, it's highly unlikely that Talking Heads will ever reform, but I'm just wondering if he's still friendly with Jerry, Tina, and Chris?

Is Steve Hackett still on good terms with his ex-Genesis bandmates?

Just wondering. I'm pretty sure Peter is, as he attended Genesis's last show in 2022, with Phil, Mike, and Tony, but I'm wondering if Steve is still friendly with them.

About Izzy's guitars?

I'd like to know more about what he used on GNR's albums. I already know all about Slash's guitars; his Derrig Les Paul and all the others. I do know that he used an ES-175 on the majority of Appetite for Destruction, if not all of the album. I think he used a Les Paul Custom on the Like a Suicide EP, and I also saw him with a Telecaster during the Use Your Illusion era. Does anybody have any more info?

Is Izzy still on good terms with his former GNR bandmates?

Just curious. I doubt that he's going to rejoin GNR, even for a one off, but I was wondering if he's at least friendly with Axl, Slash, Duff, Steven, and the others?

About Cliff's bass(es) on Ride the Lightning.

I understand that around the time Metallica did RTL, he had both the Rickenbacker and an Alembic Spoiler which was later stolen from him. I wonder if the Alembic was used on a few songs on the album, or if it was all the Rickenbacker?

Why that scream the end of Ocean Machine?

Could anyone tell me what's the reason for that blood curdling scream at the tail end of Thing Beyond Things; the last song on Ocean Machine: Biomech? I don't see what the purpose of that was...other than to simply scare people to death.

Are the surviving members of the Buckingham-Nicks lineup of FM on good terms with each other nowadays?

Christine seemed like she was on good terms with John and the others by the time she passed. Lindsey's ouster from FM in 2018 made me think that he and Stevie were going back to the bad blood that they had in the '70s and '80s, but I wonder if they're at peace with each other now?

Just asking out of curiosity. I highly doubt that he will ever rejoin Marillion, but I just wonder if he's at least friendly with his former bandmates?

What did Brian and Carl think of Dennis's relationship with Charles Manson?

Just asking out of curiosity. I do hear that Brian felt very uneasy about it; even before the Manson Murders.

About John Petrucci's guitars?

I do know that he used a BC Rich Assassin or When Dreams and Day Unite, and then switched to Ibanez, which he used until 2001, and has been playing Music Man guitars since then. But I'd like to know more about his guitars. Is that all he used? Are there any guitars that he used in the studio that he never used live, or vice versa?

He had so many throughout his life, but I'll go with Eminence Front as of now.

Has anyone here ever met a member of the Police? What are they like?

I never met them, but some people say that Sting has a bit of an ego, but he doesn't seem too bad. Stewart seems pretty cool. Dunno about Andy.

What song, in your opinion, has Geddy's best bass performance?

Hard to pick just one for me, but I'll just say for now that it's a tossup between Limelight, Freewill, and YYZ.
