    Great read. Knew about Bear (RIP), but not about Bob.

    I had a pair of Bob's white 'glass horn stacks like those pictured in ~'79. Heil road-boxed active XOs and amps too. Got the load for $500, used them a couple years, then in a pinch, sold them... for $500. Had to demo them 1 nite in the club that wanted to buy them. Jazz club on South Paseo in KCMO. Police were there at least 3 times. I was one nervous, long-haired honky, tell ya what... Come last call the manger was nowhere to be found. I didn't want to leave the gear with no money, but when the waitress said "you don't have to go home, but you can't stay here", I think she meant it. Sat in my van a bit, and who pulls up but the manager. Got my money, and got home.
