Our band is scheduled to play New Years Eve at "Finland House", Lantana, FL-assuming we don't get cancelled. We played there for Finland Independence Day on 06/12/2020. They liked us and asked us to do NYE. Nice people, nice place.
Question: If people from Finland are called 'Fins', and people from Poland are called 'Poles', then why aren't people from Holland called 'Holes'?

That is reserved for some people here in the US

My Grandparents were from Holland, and I was born in and live in the US. I'm not sure I like what you seem to be implying about me!

Not to worry. My implication was not directed at you. Nor was it directed at the burrows and donkeys of this land. The "Rulz" do not permit me to say more...

I will do that but recently I lost all my photo's on my phone! I hadn't saved any of my current rig to my pc and external hard drive! I will get some here at home but don't have any gigs setup until April. Pics coming!!

All four of my grandparents were from Poland.
Signed, the Pole....
Thanks. Not that I need it, but I just think my 200c and pair of 100c:s need a little brother
That sounds nice GP. I haven’t played live, in front of an audience, since beginning of this year
Also rehearsals are out of the question since about a month
. Well, maybe the new year will slowly take things back to normal again...
When in Rome, do as the romans do.Question: If people from Finland are called 'Fins', and people from Poland are called 'Poles', then why aren't people from Holland called 'Holes'?
When in Turkey, do as the turkeys do.
I herewith publicly admit to not yet owning a Rumble.
Is this still the case, instru? Still no Rumble yet?
You've been lurking here quite some time, which you're certainly welcome to do, of course. Just let us know if we can help you decide on one.
'Til then, we wish you a safe and enjoyable holidays there, in the lower lands. I'll always remember my visit there fondly.

Way back when I lived in Chicago, a bunch of us from work did a race day, taking staff and s.o.'s to the Arlington race track. One guy's wife was born in Poland and moved to the U.S. as a child. She was nice, but quiet and shy. While everyone else was pouring over the race sheets, she just sat there. Didn't bet a dime. Until the last race of the day, when "her horse" was running. That horse? Polish Navy was his name. A 50-1 long shot. That finished first! She took home more money than the rest of us lost cumulatively.
Why, thank you for remembering, G-Dog! Indeed it has just happened: I now have a Rumble. V3 15c, so it's kind of a Humble Rumble. See pics.
I traded it for pedals I wasn't using. A really good deal, since I'm surely using the Rumble. Just now I played my fiver over it, and small as it is it didn't blink: a low B sounds like a low B. Pure bass goodness, and so portable! As it happens I didn't have the car the day I got it, and I had to carry it several miles across town. Which was no problem.
I have a question: there's some black textile sorta tape sticking out at the lower right corner. Does anyone know what it is? And what to do about it? It looks like it wants to be folded back inside, but then I'd have to open the whole thing up, and I don't know how to do that. Other than that triviality my preowned Rumble is certainly in top shape and is game for anything.

Well, there you go, insty! Glad I asked. Nice little R15c! @instrumentalist, you are now member #1275 in the Fender Rumble Club. Congratulations and welcome. It's good to have you with us officially, at last. I assume you know your way around here and the Rumble Club Wiki page. If not, just ask.
Now is the time when we all ... . . . .
Rumble On!
