Beebs,
Per the Spider Dan Vegas show:
Dan Michael and I went to Vegas in Fall '80 to 'suss out the whole climbing scene there. This is before Lynny and Largo took up with Grandstaff; I guess before MP and I went to Oly to climb Rainier and met Connie (whole story in itself, Deadly Heads).
So, my contact in Vegas was "Indian Dan" aka "Spider Dan" aka "The Nudest" (Hey Bachar, remember Hyperion Arch in Josh, right after you and Gramicci came back from Patagonia?, Dan strippin' fully and Lynn wippin' off her Shirt?). Anyhow, (My inlaws just handed me a dram of Macahlan 12 year here in Boston), Dan Michael and I hooked up with Spider Dan to learn something of the routes in RedRocks. To find Dan, we had to first go to the "Blue Room Lounge" in LV. Ya, we witnessed the whole act: "The Dorian Gray" thing. Dan evolved this skit, where he transmogrified from way old man to young stud. At the young stud crescendo, he gets propped out under darkness on stage, leading to rising light, while hanging from a pull up bar in a G String, while doing one arm lower offs.
He said he had to tweak his act from one arm pull ups to lower downs, in order to save his arms...
Then, there is the 'Dan leads a nuclear demonstration on the east coast story', replete with flaming arrows, during sunrise and full moon set...

Yeah Natural Dan we first called him after the Hyperion strip down session....he barely climbed back then too. He hadn't morphed into a 'spider' yet..
Yeah that other photo was taken waaaaay behind Queen Mtn. (like at least 10,000 miles behind)...ha! jb
