Came across these old pictures and thought some might like to see them. They were taken at the Civic Auditorium in Oshawa, Ontario, a building I worked in for 20 years.
Hank was taken in 1967 and Buck in 1969. Don't know who the steel player is in the Hank photo but it is J.D. Maness with Buck.
Notice ALL the on stage equipment these fellas used, compared to today's shows!! _________________ Rebel� |

Pretty awesome. Sure says a lot about all the crap we carry around nowdays.....Jay Dee is running a set of cords, a pedal, and a guitar. Pretty straightforward. |

Monitors? Who needed monitors?
Buck & Don even shared a Twin. |

I believe that's Jimmie Crawford playing steel in the Hank Snow picture. |

Nice shots!
Those twin reverbs perched on folding chairs look kind of scary.... _________________ Jackson Pro-IV D-10, Fender Dual-Pro 8, Epiphone Zephyr-6 |

I know Jimmy Crawford played for Hank, and at the time Jim Kandy. or Candy I'm not sure was playing bass...They came into a club I was playing at in Omaha...We decided to jam after, and got Jimmy's Sho Bud off the bus and had a great time...Boy could he pick...I don't think Hank was too happy about it though...Sure made my night !! _________________ Justice Pro Lite 4x5....

It's when one of these bad boys walks out on stage.

that is just wild to see how little equipment they used (+ unmiked amps) to play a large civic auditorium. no monitors so that means the stage volume had to be reasonable. _________________ '65 Sho-Bud D-10 Permanent • '54 Fender Dual-8 • Clinesmith T-8 • '38 Ric Bakelite • '92 Emmons D-10 Legrande II |
