Ear Plugs!

Content type: Images
Just got these. I'm amazed so far at how they cut the sound without cutting frequencies. All vibe players should have ear plugs. This is a pretty piercing instrument. I got mine from here:http://www.facebook.com/pages/MusicMolds/…

Here's the proof. Gary opened up for Cream. I remember someone telling me (way back in the day) that he really wasn't a hippie but grew his hair long so he'd get gigs!! If it's not true it's pretty funny and if it is true it's pretty…
