Someone who was there will doubtless correct or confirm, but I think all that happened was that the guitar toppled over during the "leaning it on a guitar stand and playing it with the drumstick" section of Vamos, and the neck broke. Hardly an act of deliberate fury and destruction; a "mere" accident. Somebody posted a photo of Frank giving Joey a consoling cuddle in the immediate aftermath.
It was the 14/06 Zenith show where Joey's guitar broke. The guitar fell off the stand during the Vamos solo and the neck broke off completely. An accident. The expresion on Joey's face was of utter disbelief. He liked that guitar. Yeah, Frank consoled him with a huge hug, Kim and Dave were having a good laugh.
Joey has been playing a black Gibson ever since. I wonder if he can have the golden one repaired.
i was just at the second row at the zenith on the 14 june... and there was nobody filming the show. i don't think we have a chance to see the broken guitar on the dvd!
