Members Bookumdano2 Posted December 29, 2011 Members Share Posted December 29, 2011 I was looking around for awhile to see what his collection contained. Wow, 117 of em!!This is kinda interesting. Never knew Gere as a musician so it's cool to hear his take on his guitars.. and to mention bands I used to go see as a teen such as Buffalo Springfield- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Anderton Posted December 30, 2011 Members Share Posted December 30, 2011 That's very cool. Given that he doesn't tell the world what a great guitar player he is, I'd bet he's pretty darn good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members A. Einstein Posted December 31, 2011 Members Share Posted December 31, 2011 Richard Gere performed live in Europe with his band a few months ago, saw it on tv, was surprised how good it was, that's at least what I believe to remember Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Bookumdano2 Posted January 4, 2012 Author Members Share Posted January 4, 2012 I bet this video will drive up his insurance rates.... Except, he gave all of them to Christies to auction off for charity last month. I think every single one of them sold and over a mil was generated. Seems I saw $93,000 being the price one of the sold guitars. He had tons of amps in that deal too although I've not yet found out what they were. Wonder if he's now starting a new collection. I see he's also a keyboard player and playing pretty well in the few videos I've seen. Who knows what stacks of keyboards and modules are stashed in all his houses.

Members raagam Posted January 4, 2012 Members Share Posted January 4, 2012 Great videos, thanks for posting. He was at a Tibetan Buddhist teaching & meditation retreat I attended a few months back, and was simply another person there, didn't act or get treated in any special way. Seemed like a humble, cool and nice person. Gere has done a lot to raise awareness about and help the Tibetan people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At the Tibetan events I've seen him attend, he's been the same way, just acting like another person and being humble. Sometimes he comes across like a bit of a fruitcake when speaking about this during awards ceremonies, and I don't know how much that channel awareness of human rights abuses in Tibet, but at least he seems genuinely concerned about the cause and does more than his part to help out.
