    If you're a motorcyclist, this is the best place in this country to be. 

    True dat. I never got to ride it, I had a few 750 Honda's, a Suzuki 750 Intruder and an 850/4 Suzuki (shaft drive) with a Windjammer many years ago. Never had Harley money, most of my riding was done out west, or Louisiana. 

  2. A lady comes home from her doctor's appointment grinning from ear to ear. Her husband asks, "Why are you so happy?" The wife says, "The doctor told me that for a forty-five year old woman, I have the breasts of an eighteen year old."

    "Oh yeah?" quipped her husband, "What did he say about your forty-five year old a ss?" She said,

    "Your name never came up in the conversation."

  3. A group of Native Americans are sitting around a campfire

    A young brave asks the others, "When will I be given a name?"

    "When you distinguish yourself in the tribe," answers Thundering Buffalo.

    "Then the elders will recognize you with a name," says Rides By Moonlight.

    "It is the proudest moment of a young brave's life," says Silent Wolf.

    "Eh, it's overrated," says Chits In Breechcloth...

  4. My old bandmate and acoustic duo partner has a really old Swiss Army Knife he keeps in his gig bag. I've known him nearly 30 years so that thing has to be older than dirt.

    He fixes everything with it.

  5. I've carried a multi-tool for decades. Construction, demolition, lumberjacking, hunting, cabin building and being a gigging musician has proven these things to be quite valuable in a pinch,

    This old SOG was my second, I wore the first one out and my Dad was a gun dealer and had it replaced with this one. It's sentimental so it now stays in the house.

    What you got?

    Most of us know re-mixing the icons is like goin' in changing details on a Van Gogh or so. 


    Ahh, Vincent could have used a slightly warmer turquoise there, let's fix that.

    That's kind of my opinion and one reason I've never bought a re-mix. Well, except Let It Be Naked. But it was supposed to be Naked.

    Giles may be a genius and all that, but John never actually approved those changes, did he?

    I think they were going for about $500. They looked nice but the quality and sound couldn’t compete with the Loar, Eastman and Kentucky brands. 

    I played one that was pretty darned good. Mandolins are expensive.

    A guy I jam with weekly has a Kentucky and man, that thing is a sweety. It doesn't have the overtones and resonance that my Gibson has, but it's a really nice mandolin for the money.

    Vice versa?

    Like, you bringing the guitar lots of joy?

    I yell at mine all the time telling them to "WAKE UP"....

    I have a Carvin X100B half stack and it’s a badass amp. You get 100W of EL34 goodness, a parametric EQ, spring reverb, and a push pull pot that engages a sortof boost or overdrive mode. 

    A very cool amp that Zappa used, as I recall.

    Probably explains the Vai connection.

  10. Women say they like a man who is "funny" and "spontaneous"

    But you knock on their bedroom window at midnight wearing a clown costume and suddenly it's all screaming and throwing things and police sirens.
