The Combo Club

[SoulReflection]

I never called you a chicken, it's a warning what evolution can lead to....

Yep, eating chickens is not bad...it could be worse. Take it from a dinosaur...we are more refined now but, don't test your luck .

The notch filter and I aren’t agreeing some days, wish it could just be disabled. Weight is fine, maybe it just needs a timeout

Read an owner’s review on the same amp and he complained that the filter is always running, even when it’s completely off. He didn’t like it because the useful range was so limited. Send it to Time Out!

The videos I've posted of our group playing on an outdoor stage had us playing through a venue provided sound system. My[stuff]woulda been sufficient, but I'm not complaining about not having to schlep that[stuff]and set it up/down.
One of our selling points is that the old folks(our age, BTW)can talk to each other while we're playing. Many audience members have told us they like that. We ask them to let management know. At least we used to(sigh).

Because there’s nothing worse than the band ripping through MC5’s Kick out the Jams while I’m finishing my lemon meringue pie...

Thank you. I am actually already a card carrying member... 229.

Well I’ll be...I even looked you up. 229? That’s just a bit ago. I better go back and see if I actually put you down. Thanks for letting me know, YB!

Fearless Leader, sir, you are probably havink Comrade Yogi Bear listed by his former name of Hubba-Whaa. Aren't name changes fun? Heh, heh, heh, ... ...

And it’s The Dog for the win! 007, how can I keep from driving myself crazy if the clientele switches names faster than Swink can look up used gear for us?

Here is my GK MB210 combo (stacked along with my GK 410MBE which gives me a nice portable 610 when I need it).

Welcome klejst! Owned that 210 myself when my hair was a little darker. Those six tens outta give you enough to make some noise with. If you’d like a number to this swell club, and you haven’t changed your name on me recently, I’d love to award you with one. Let me know and thanks for the pic!

Yer safe, we don't do it. Oh. It's key lime pie 'round here.

We used to unplug the phone when we got home from work on Friday night and plug it back in as we left for work on Monday. [Provided we remembered.] When the kids found out about that ploy they gifted us a spiffy new answering machine. It stayed in the unopened box until they came over a few months later and installed it “for us.” These days we annoy them with our ownership and use of flip phones.

Edit: Age and treachery will overcome youth and enthusiasm.

You devilish oldster, you. Brilliant! I still like to cut a corner off a five and stick it partially under a napkin so when my kids come over they think they’ve struck it rich...

I have had HP 200LX's, Palm PDA's, flip phones, shoe phones, Blackberries and, finally, iPhones and an iPad. The later two are the best alternatives to any phone and a computer if you are mobile. Although I still have a laptop and 32" monitor for home use, the iPhone and iPad have their uses either at home or away. And, as I said before, I am a dinosaur. But, call it evolution

Neat! I’d always wanted Don Adams’ shoe phone in Get Smart. SR, you had all the cool toys!

 

[GonePlaid]

GP, why do you have my phone?

'Cos this wouldn't fit in my pocket.

Yep, I've had a couple name changes since I first joined TB back in early 2000. I'm that guy.

My phone:

Ours was on a shelf built in to the wall.

Not even close....

THIS is a covered bridge. “Emily’s Bridge” in Stowe, Vermont. Quaint, historic, and, (best of all)...Haunted.
I was terrorized on this bridge as a youngster! We would be up in Stowe for thanksgiving every year when I was a boy, and the tradition would be to drive slowly onto the bridge, turn the car and the lights off, and listen for Emily....yeah, my older brother and sister had a lot of fun with me!!

They are both Ultralight series so they are lighter as well which make them very portable for me and yes it does move a lot of air. My main thing is I like the ability to take and use one or both. No worry about a number, I just wanted share

It's been a while since I've seen a rig with a bottle opener screwed in on one side.

Is this spring? Because there is a robin directly in my line of view from this desk.

Eeww, I wouldn't like that...sometimes you want DaBoom!
