TNS #180: Musician ____ joined my religion.

TNS #360:

I know. Man, these guys just do everything in extremes. It's not enough to stop drinking or just temper it. They do a full 180. I was in the parking lot at Jones Beach when Nicko clipped a guy with his car. We've read the stories. Then, Bruce gets cancer, gets treatment from I'm sure the best doctors money can buy, and Nicko finds religion. Ugh.

180. This thread is stupid.
181. Worst thread ever!
182. Troll thread?
183. Rules violation!
184. You're a doodoo head.
185. No, you're a doodoo head.

This thread is awesome BTW.

To be fair, some topics are extremely difficult or impossible to search for because of the way search engines work. If the search involves common words or part of an extremely common phrase, you will get a bunch of results not related to your search. The only reason the other posters know the link is because they remember reading about it in the past.

For example, there is a new brand of basses available at GC, Mitchell Bass. When I search for info on them, I get results about bass players named Mitchell, bass fishermen named Mitchell, and people literally named Mitchell Bass.

But...if you search Mitchell Basses...there it is.

I don't think it's that hard to re-word a Google search to narrow your criteria, but that's just me I guess.

Also, TNS #81 and #139 are essentially the same thing...maybe merge the two?

and my additions:
"How do I get super low action?"
"I saw _____ playing one time in a Youtube video and he/she was basically soloing the entire song, thus he/she has no concept of groove/in the pocket playing...Root & Fifths only please!!"

You're only 2 months late. No big deal. Yes, of course 2 months after their debut, Mitchell basses are readily popping up in Google results. But at the time, they were not. My post was in August, sheesh.

Good call, @johndough247! The entry formerly known as TNS #139 will be merged into #81 in the next update to the numbering table.

And @el_Bajo_Negro will be credited with the new TNS #139: "Necro-post!"

For the canned knee-jerk response category:

### - It's spelled 'Squier' not Squire.
