As Of September 2016, Jimy Bleu has been touring with "Kiss The Sky" which is the world’s most historically accurate Jimi Hendrix show EVER!
Through meticulous detailed re-productions in every aspect of look and sound, the show re-creates Hendrix’s most classic concerts and landmark stage show performances such as The English pre-fame tour, Monterey Pop, Woodstock, Band Of Gypsys & The Cry Of Love tour.
The show also includes replicated clothes and gear worn and used by Hendrix and his bandmates. It also includes a video retrospect of Hendrix’s career as well as featuring the Joshua FX light show used by Hendrix at the original Fillmore East in New York City.

After parking and walking up the block for about 20 minutes or so window shopping , we see these two guys standing in front of We Buy....they're looking at a Telecaster , so , John says to the kid..."which one you looking at?" so the kid points to a '55 or '56 Fender Telecaster and says "I always wanted a Tele but I can't afford that !!"
