The Combo Club

[iagtrplyr]

Nice story, nice summary!

Newly-updated version ought to be hitting the stores in the spring of 2021...

 

[iagtrplyr]

Btw...pretty sure I have registered for membership privileges, but in case I neglected to, here's a copy of my application.

Please forgive my tardiness. Do I need a note from my mom? (retired history teacher here)

Mike, I searched for ya up and down the list but could not find anyone by your name. No biggie, let's add ya now. It's my distinct privilege to grant you our 221st membership number in the Combo Club. Congrats!

And mikeoso, we do have a lot in common. I live up in Clinton, teach fifth-grade science and social studies (one year left before I can join you in bliss), and own a Rumble or two myself. I'm listening to the winds as I type this out and am quite happy about not having to be out in it tonight. Again, welcome aboard, neighbor!

Which one is our FL and is he sober:

So here's my big surprise. Fresh out of the G'Dog 007 Studios (similar to George Lucas' Industrial Light & Magic but on a tighter budget), here's a sampling of your Fearless Leader's December CSO recording of "All I Want for Christmas is You." The full video is available right now for $2,020, which a paltry amount considering you're getting a "working" musician in a so-called world-renowned group, plus the technical wizardry of our club's Sargeant-at-Arms, Agent 007. Personally, I think it's a steal...which is exactly what I had to do to get a copy of this GIF. Oh, he's a shrewd businessman, that G'Dog. He now has exclusive rights to all my upcoming video sessions, whether I wear Christmas lights or not.

So if you're still looking for that last-minute stocking stuffer, for two grand we've got your gift. Happy holidays!

Wow. The Green Hornet plays bass....I never knew....

An oldie, but definitely a goodie!

 

[iagtrplyr]

Apple and peach are yummy but I prefer cherry.

And Miles, ya can't leave out blueberry or pecan either! No wonder the world loves math so much. They do...right? As a former math teacher, that's at least what I always thought. One year, a former principal at our school who loved to bake, offered any student in the building a free dessert if they could explain what so big about 3.14. We'll do anything to reach a kid's understanding.

 

[BrusselsBass]

Your wish is my command, even if it is a little late. BB, you are member #219 and with that, it gives you the exact same benefits that we all receive after being given a number: the right to stop by anytime even if just to say hi, the ability to offer us insight on what you're currently up to in the world of bass, and you also score the nifty membership ring presented by G'Dog. What more could ya ask for? Thanks for joining up with us. I don't remember if we have anyone else from Belgium. Add us to your signature and invite your friends!

Thanks again,

FL

Thanks a lot for letting me join and attributing this pretty number "219" - magic!!
I wish you all a happy season, Merry Xmas, and the best for a healthy 2021. See you soon

Everyone

please be careful tonight, there is a DUI checkpoint at the corner of Hallway and Kitchen. Be safe.

OUFFF - just made it on that list before closure didn't know what I'm missing out before I found the formidable CC club! My life would have been wasted.
WHAT A NICE XMAS PRESENT

What a nice thing to say, thanks very much. Please carry that positive attitude right through 2021! In fact, I’m elevating you to the position of Goodwill Ambassador for the club. Get out there, BB, and promote your positive vibe throughout all of Talkbass and maybe snag a few recruits if ya get the chance.

Do you accept this appointment?

 

[mikeoso]

As the (currently) junior member of this august body, let me say hello to all. I'm located just south of where the Super-Slab crosses The Big Muddy, and have a room full of Martins and a building full of parrots. Drop in some time when the plague is over.

The new guys are getting the UPGRADED communicator badges, right? The left side of my tongue still feels funny from the old communicator badge.

We had a pie that was round, despite the fact we knew that pi are square!

And Miles, ya can't leave out blueberry or pecan either! No wonder the world loves math so much. They do...right? As a former math teacher, that's at least what I always thought.

We'll do anything to reach a kid's understanding.

My wife is famous for her chocolate pecan pies. When we finally get the chance to meet up, I'll ask (beg, plead, beseech, enjoinder, etc.) for her to make one to share.
