Just thought i would check in and say hi to some folks forgot about you dude lol how does that happen. how you doing dude

What's new been a while thought I would check in and have a peek, how you all doing

Yes, yes it is. No. They have their heads to far up their a$$es.

Nothing! Quit the band. Going to start writing stuff. Will be a while before I have anything. May post it here if anyone cares. Looking forward to being creative. Hopefully it sounds okay.

It's never happened to me ever. Likey won't ever. Usually I'm more listening to the music. I'm not a lyric guy. The only time I need lyrics is with the band and only for keying on the changes. I rarely care what's being said. But I'm weird like that. My entire life music has never ever been about the lyric. Just the music. Not sure why.

KFC. Ohhhh baby. Just me and my boy. 10 Piece bucket, 10 hot wings, large fry, gigantic gravy. I dialed 91 as I was eating it. That's some good eatin. Ya I can cook. FU!!

No man! Last I recall you made the leap. Hands doing a bass line and a melody together. I think that was you? If you can do that without your head exploding,, your on the rails in my books. I never made that leap. My head is still just particles. Brain matter all over the walls here. Who farted?

Musicians are such flakes. So annoying!! So since this last post the guitar player has been ousted and I've switched from bass back to geet. So far all I got is these, Just Between You And Me - April Wine Keep Your Hands To Yourself All Right Now White Wedding Roxy Roller Cat Scratch Fever Never really learned any covers. So it's taking me a while. But I like it.

That is fun isn't it? Well lately my guitar has been neglected. I joined a band a few weeks back who needed a bass player so I blew the dust off and got back into faking being a bass player. So I've been trying to learn a bunch. So far I got. Roxy Roller Sweet Home Alabama Smoking in the Boys Room Takin Care Of Business White Wedding Bang a Gong As Fast As You Diggin a Hole Cocaine Blow at High Dough New Orleans is Sinking All Right Now Could of Been a Lady Tush Mary Jane's Last Dance Fortunate Son Only have another 30 to go. lol. Actually quite enjoying it.

These dudes are local to my city. You order a Pilsner in Vancouver they know you are from Saskatchewan. Check out their other tunes.

Another Canadian band. Love this band. Their second album just came out. Click on the right to check out other tunes of theirs.

How about some new Canadian talent. Good stuff. I like it. Hope you do to.

Couple vinos on the go. Homemade burgs on the grill as I type and fresh cut fries in the oven. Veg marinating in the fridge. Life is good!

I recall a Zappa interview way back in the day where he was talking about the weight of a Les Paul and how it affected his singing. He said because he wasn't a great singer it was hard for him to carry the weight and breath comfortably making breath control harder. And Frank was a small guy. There is still tons of shots of him playing Les Pauls but I think I recall him saying in that interview that he prefers to sit while playing them. So ya, I have heard of people complaining about the weight. I'm old and sore now and if I'm standing holding my Les Paul for 3 hours I freakin know about it. I take my light old Hamer to jams if I'm going to be standing for long periods. But I do hear what you are saying. I wouldn't be calling that an ES either. It aint no ES, it's a semi hollow Les Paul. That's not to say I wouldn't mind trying it. I really like my heavy slab but I would be ok with a light version. Being that there are only 100 I won't have to worry about it though.

A whole pork shoulder chopped up into fairly large bits with onions and garlic and a whole jar of sauerkraut simmered on the stove for a few hours. mmmm, ya baby,, falling off the bone goodness.

Lol.. My first double post. Am I now an official member? Stupid phone!!!

Hey L8, I like this question. I just bought a Korg Pitchhawk I use on my Classic Custom. I love how easy it is to use in a jam/rehearsal. Mine also has the disclaimer about harming certain finishes. I just don't leave it on. I only clip it on when tuning. Then I take it off. That said, I buy my guitars to play them so I don't worry too much about it. But I'm pretty sure if its only on for a minute it shouldn't be a problem. I'm not basing this any fact. It's just what I do. Cheers.

Asama Bin Jammin It's a Denver. Entry level guitars. If you love how it plays and sounds that's all the matters. Enjoy it.

Well,, today/tonight I listened to. Black Sabbath - first album Yes - Tormato ZZ Top - Tres Hombres

Yes,, this. Anything else is pompous nonsense. I challenge ANYONE to pass the blindfold test.

Surf,,,I absolutely love that incarnation of Crimson. I saw those 4 guys live at the Queen Elizabeth Theater in Vancouver in 1984. They make this complex music look easy to play. So right now I'm listening to Neal and Jack and Me. Just before this, I was listening to The Black Keys - Lonely Boy. My kid is learning it on drums. Love the video, they musta spent a fortune. lol.

Wow,, me too. Somehow I lost track of this thread. Looking at the dates though it was still summer and I was camping every chance I got so my internet was limited. At any rate,,,, Great job Rabs. It takes some giant kahonees to take someone elses guitar and do a project like that with it. You did a fantastic job. Good on ya.. Oh,, and I love this pic,,, nothing says "I'm British" like a nice basket of tea cups. But what the hell are you doing with a bag full of teddy bears?

I have never known anyone who bought an electric guitar just to play it acoustically .....
