Back onto topic, OP, I am probably the most famous person on the internet. What do you want to know?

Thats for sure, as I've had the pleasure of introducing one to TalkBass so he could also join us.. then I totally left him alone, and I don't make mention of him.. its just common courtesy. He'll post every great once in a while I've noticed. | | Thread Tools | Search this Thread | | | |
