The Dude Pit club?

[davec]

Ok, just like any of the other clubs that identify us as group.
I made my way to TB, via Steve Barr's "Dude Pit", I do not want this to become a negitive thread and will ask the mod's to kill it if it goes that way. However, I think it could be a cool way to keep some of the really good things alive


just take the next number and list it with your old handle if different



example

Dude pit club member #1 (davec)

Heck, I'll play... Like you, I found TB after hanging out for a couple of years on the old Pit. I've always loved old Gibson basses (my first "real" bass as a 76 G-3), and loved the Gibson forum there. Lots of great guys and really great information to had there. Uwe was a great guy, with the bass collection to end all bass collections! Let's see... I had a couple of different names over time there... I know the original for sure...

Dude Pit Club #2 (old handle jpG3fan)

 

[DaveDeVille]

i wish the Pit was still open ...

[TBird1958]

I really enjoyed the Gibson group at the old Pit, happily most of the guys are still around at a smaller forum.........Gibson folks Rock!
#4 Please!

 

[cheezewiz]

I loved the Pit and almost all the guys there, but that was the past. Things changed, quite a bit, and I have no desire to revisit them.

 

[davec]

neither do I, chessewiz. But, I've lost touch with too many good people and I don't remember everyone who was there.....


have you noticed that everyone on this post is a supporting member of TB?...hmmm

Why, yes... Yes we were...

It was a seriously great bunch of guys all in all. I don't think any of us that were there want to re-hash everything, but I know that just like Dave, I see screen names over here and wonder if they are any of the same guys from over there.

I am an old member of the DP. Good times. Shame it fell apart, but Steve kept his word to me on dealings I did with him. I do not, however, wish to be part of any new DP-numbered club here. Sorry, just not a fan of those things.

Ah, so youre a part of that anti-club club, eh? Thats what... #724 for you.

I really enjoyed the Pit and the many sub-forums. I stopped going there when it would be a new format and on a new location at least once a month. I ordered some stuff from Steve and got it, but the place got barren in a hurry.

 

[Fly Guitars]

ahhh, the dudepit. Anyone remember the dudepit Gibson bass CD?

Might go and have a look for it.....

 

[Loel]

Yup! bought a Skyline Duck Dunn from Steve,
use to be Electric Blue there and here,shame
it fell apart..

 

[Pilgrim]

The GAS Station was the first internet bass forum I visited. Most of the pitters are here or at BABP.
I got my Buttercream Sterling H/S through Steve by way of Jack.

 

[BartmanPDX]

The Dude pit was pretty cool back in the day.

I miss the old forum on ho-bags. Nothing like that here. I especially liked the total POS bass that got passed around between forum members. It had a crappy stompbox mounted on the front, and the volume knob was off an old light dimmer. Classic. I totally would have gigged that turd.

I don't miss the drama from the final days, but I do wish the best for those involved.

 

[Yvon]
