Boogie Nights an Australian First
On Tuesday the 19th of August, Music Park and Mesa/Boogie took over Manhattan’s Bar & Café in Victoria Park, Perth WA for Australia’s first Mesa/Boogie guitar clinic and product presentation night. An astounding array of Mesa/Boogie guitar and bass amps were on display, along with information walls and slideshow.

Clinic MC, Graham Greene kicked of the evening with his Mesa Road King combo, treating the guitar fans present to a feast of monster tones and fretboard antics. Karina Cass showed that she could cut it with the boys as she put her Mesa Roadster through its paces with a set of cool instrumental tunes ranging from rock to jazz.

Gerry Quigley and The Shinkickers closed musical proceedings in fine rocking style, switching seamlessly from growling blues songs to searing and lyrical instrumentals. The climax of the evening was an all-star guitar jam on the classic Hendrix version of All Along The Watchtower as Karina and Graham joined Gerry (running through a Mesa Lonestar combo) and band for a rousing rendition of the song, featuring extended solos and a hilarious impromptu trade-off section with all three guitarists at their personable best as they shared the spotlight to rapturous applause for a fitting finale to a stunning performance.
