The unbelievable part is the "signed, dated note from Chris Holmes".
I still think Holmes giving the other guitar player in my 90s band shit is one of the most hilarious burns of all time...
Oh, thought everyone had heard it, sorry... here ya go: In the 90s my then band used to rehearse next door to his not-WASP one in this giant studio complex in Vernon, CA. One night I'm showing our other guitar player a new riff, and he wasn't picking it up for some reason...possibly hungover, whatever. I'd play the part, he'd try and have trouble. Anyway, this goes on for a couple of minutes. After one attempt he stops, and from next door....Chris plays my riff, note-for-note. As if to say to the dude "Get it together, man! I already learned it!"
The other guitar player was like "Is he baggin' on me?" Yeah, think so... He just kinda smiled and nodded next time I saw him in the hall...fuckin' hilarity... much nicer dude than "The Decline of Western Civilization Pt II" would suggest. Speaking of which, last I heard he was sober.
Glad to hear it if he is sober. Friend of mine is dying right now from liver failure. Lost my cousin a couple of years ago from the same thing. Both cases it was due to drinking like their lives depended on it....for decades and decades.
The price my cousin paid was not having a long life.
Chris is a nice guy. I hope he has his shit together now.
My fave CH story was when I went to find him for sound check, and he was asleep under the craft services table....
Obviously he got the same touring advice one of his former bandmates gave me: "You will learn to sleep ANYWHERE".
Looks like it is going to sell. Someone submitted a bid....for the $3,275 asking price....
2 guys bid and one of them won it for $3,325:
