Achievements:
It seems unusual to me that the show used for this is one that was done so early in the tour. I guess that shows that Sammy is confident in himself and his band.

When the early leg of the tour only goes from the 11th to the 3rd of the following month, late November isn't "early in the tour" anymore.

I was at the show too in Chicago. I was great though he did some wierd shit. Oh Well, He said at the show that he was doing a taping for a web broadcast and also a video. Hopefully the video is available soon. I don't really like the webcasts cause I have a suck ass HP pavilion. I had on my VHLINKS hockey jersey and sat right by a camera in the balcony in the second row. Great seats there, Hope I could promote you Brett an CO.

As far as I know it’s just aesthetic but just not sure why they’d make that change. Then again Fender is a big corporation so they probably had some focus group that said square routes offer better...
