Yeah,,,,sorry- a bit too much “cheer”!

Here’s a combo to cheer us up-
Rumble On. It always seems to deliver. :bassist::cool:

There it is! Lower Left :woot: On the Job!!!

Some guy named Dennis even jammed penny whistle with us on Dr. Sean Meade’s original “Medicine Wheel”. :bassist:

Last time really playing out before the world all. Just. :thumbsdown: Sorry! No worries!! It was a GREAT time- the woman hosting was the daughter of the girl who did “I’ve Got a Brand New Pair of Rollerskates…” back in the early 1970s.

Here is my Fearless Combo, with the Fearless Compressore, and an unplanned weekend purchase - this Essence popped up Thursday afternoon. Yesterday morning I drove to Gent (Flanders) to test it, and I bought it :smug: Looks that I found myself a lil Christmas present (still have to wrap it) :thumbsup:

Wow….merry Xmas indeed!! I love it!!
 
That's the tipping point where the oppression of the "Fearless Leader" turns into "Leaderless Fear"...:nailbiting:

You guys are so spoiled. It's called December, people! A hellish week to say the least, but we made it through with our two student holiday programs flying Christmas colors. I always say, December and May easily make up for getting summers off. One five-day week and then Monday and Tuesday before vacay sets in. Our holiday music fest on the 21st looks to be our music teacher playing her acoustic and belting out the yuletide hits, and me possibly accompanying on the Cajon (our percussionist might be back from a Covid ten-day break just in time to play, but maybe not. If he does show up with enough strength to spank the wooden box, I'll move to my Beatle bass. Regardless, there will be live music (even for just an hour) at Northeast Elementary School in another week! :hyper:

That is a beauty, BB, way to snag it! That'll give you something fun to play with throughout the cold winter days and nights. Sheesh, all I wanted was a pair of warm socks, but now you have me rethinking my position. :woot:
 
Wow super fast and helpful responses! Thank you ladies and gentlemen!

I do already have a combo (EBS Drome 15) and pseudo combo (Bergantino HT112 + GB shuttle attracted), and will now welcome junior to the amp family.

Greetings, MUA! I know it's been almost a week now, but since you posted several gorgeous pictures of your various setups, and all with a combo too, the very least I can do is ask you if you'd like to join our cavern of combo cutups who appreciate the effort you put into your gear. Let me know and I'll try to be quicker getting you a membership number than I was responding to this post. We hope you join us. Thanks!
