I met Mike in St Louis many years ago. Can someone give me an update on Mike's history, equipment etc.
He knocked me out.

Funny but sadly true---I saw Mike not long ago. He was standing on a street corner in Greenville, SC, playing a ukulele (not in tune, either), trying to sing "Ain't She Sweet," with a cardboard sign that said,"Will pick for NyQuil." Needed a shave, didn't smell too good... Had a hat layin' on the sidewalk, people were dropping their pocket change in it. And the worst part---It was a BORROWED hat  ... |

Mike had a Rosewood '66 Emmons bolt-on P/P at the Chattanooga Show back in the 90's. Told me he got it brand new from the burlington factory many years ago. Mike's dad, the late Jack Bagwell was also a very fine Steel Guitarist. Mike was a absolute monster on that C6th neck.

| We can't be talking about the same guy. Dude I saw DID say something about a steel guitar, but I thought he meant he was gonna try and snatch that '68 Harmony Rocket outta the back seat of my car. Sad, man, sad . |

A Mike Bagwell Sighting.......
I saw someone that looked like Mike Bagwell in the Travelers Rest area of South Carolina the other day. This guy was selling pencils outside of a Walmart. I swear he was mumbling something about Emmmmmmmons.

FYI......He is selling pencils at a Wal Mart in Upstate SC going by the alias Johnny D
At times, you may hear him mumbling something about "Emmons".
