Steve Miller Band "Guitar Galaxy"
Stage Set
We've always thought that Steve Miller
was kind of a cool guy; guitar slinger,
appreciation for the blues, Bay Area socialite,
etc. On this tour, Steve has a pretty cool
piece of stage scenery: the Guitar Galaxy.
One of the coolest and innovative sets seen
in a long time.
It consists of a canvas backdrop with the
image of a swirling guitar cluster. Note,
there are lights attached to the canvas
that follow the path of the swirl to make
it more galaxy like. Then in front of it
is a netting with cloth guitars attached.
The guitars represented are taken from Steve's
collection. But, blowing all this out of
the water, is a giant Strat headstock with
neon strings suspended from the center of
the lighting rig. And the tuning machines
are lights. There are some great shots of
the set on Steve's
web site and a making of the set video
is available here.
Marshall Man snapped pics of this set upclose
in the day time to show you more of the
behind the scene theatre look to it. Click
