MURAL DRAWING IN TEMPE, AZ – 2020
This mural and Glen’s painting is the brainchild of Thomas Gwinn of Tempe, AZ. He constructed a wall on the edge of his property where he has placed the portraits of five Phoenix-area musicians who are no longer with us…GB being one of them. He GoFunded the monies needed to hire muralist Gina Ribaudo to draw and paint the five portraits, using her unique style. Glen’s family and friends thank and applaud Mr. Gwinn and Ms Ribaudo on their work in this presentation. The mural is located at 1992 E Richards Dr, Tempe, AZ . Cross street is S. Country Club Way. (Near the Superstition freeway.)

NEAL SMITH AND MICHAEL BRUCE PAY A VISIT TO GLEN’S PICTURE.
LOL. Don’t leave alcohol as a tribute. This beer disappeared shortly after it was left. Suggest leaving one bottle – half consumed.
***[Members on Wall: Vince Welnick – co-founder of Tubes, a Phoenix band. Glen Buxton. Doug Hopkins: Raised in Tempe, started the Gin Blossoms. Chester Bennington was born in Phoenix, part of Linkin Park and Stone Temple Pilots. Mike Condello…..well…you probably need to be from the Phoenix area and know who Wallace and Ladmo were.] All are deceased and all have a strong connection to the Phoenix area.
