    What brand of jeans do you wear?

    Who here names their bass?

    Do You Own Montrose- "Montrose"?

    Yes and it's in perfect condition. I only played it once to record it to Cassette; nearly wore out the tape though. :-) Their concert for that album, at Winterland in SF, ranks as one of my all-time favorite Hard Rock shows. Years later bought it on Cd, and ripped it to digital. I still listen...

    Question about mankind.

    The most destructive organism the planet has seen was the blue-green algae that excreted the then poisonous gas, Oxygen. They changed the entire ecosystem by killing the other existing life forms. Also, nature is not sentient. It doesn't defend itself or make any conscience decisions.

    Hey Cover Band Players - Crazy Bands & Stage Antics?

    +1 I haven't seen these types of antics around here. Being a 'showman' is very important, being a fool, not so much. Just my opinion, many disagree and that's fine with me.

    Relationship starting?

    IMO, your first sentence is the problem; why "start" a relationship? You already have several started and you don't realize it. My wife and I have been married for 31 years and known each other for almost 40. What has kept us together through the many problems of life is our friendship...

    thru neck basses

    I have both types and my longest sustainer is a bolt on. I think it just depends on the individual bass. I do not think it is possible, or at least not economical, to change a neck through into a bolt on, but that is not an informed opinion just a guess.
