    Great story! Thanks for posting.

    But why is it from the Science Fiction Hall of Fame? I guess Jimi did seem kind of extra-terrestrial back in the day.

    That was pretty cool, but evidently I haven't seen Chris Squire in a while. He looks . . . older. But then again I'd this he has to be 60 if he's a day.

    It's likely archived in the Experience Music Project (EMP) musem in Seattle which shares a building and infrastructure with the Sci-Fi museum.

    Paul Allen built them and is really into both Hendrix and Sci-Fi.

    I noticed he wasn't wearing his.

    I got one pair that are coveralls, insulated for Missouri winters, and camo and reversible to hunter orange when needed. They kept me warm in my treestand once from daybreak to noon. That was just enough to get a nice buck, they're my favorites now, my lucky coveralls.

    I agree, though some mornings my body disagrees.

    What was Chris thinking with those overalls? Yikes.
