mpolak21 Posted March 1, 2014 Share Posted March 1, 2014 Doesn't sound like any guitar-smashing is taking place? http://sooutoftune.org/concerts/581 Something was wrong with one Jeff's Jazzmasters and he threw it towards the amp of the song. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
luke79 Posted March 2, 2014 Share Posted March 2, 2014 The Flagstaff,AZ 2005 show was plagued with technical difficulties that seemed to affect the overall mood and tone of the show. Nells, in an attempt to lighten the mood, started humping the bass drum. The last song of the main set was Spiders and midway through the song Jeff's red SG started cutting out. Jeff pulls the strap over his head, lifts the guitar up and sends it right towards his amp. Amp falls over, SG neck snaps off, Jeff walks off as the band continues to play. I talked to Stan a few years later about that show and he said the guitar had since been repaired. There's a photo book called "Instrument" that has a close up photo of where the neck snapped. Jeff's reply in the book as to how the guitar was damaged was simply "Spiders." There's a video recording of the Flagstaff show circulating that someone at the Orpheum Theater gave me.
