Feeling a little mellow.Cowgirl in the Sand?
A super classic by Bn Jovi played with my Epiphone Thunderbird Classic Pro!
But my new team won 9 of the next 12 championships.Sounds like your former team got a good deal.
I find NY to be a self-righteous blowhard. But in the interest of maintaining harmony, here is Cinnamon Girl...

Feeling a little mellow.
Because they gave up beer that was holding them back?But my new team won 9 of the next 12 championships.![]()
I'm always curious about wardrobe conversations some bands must have.
"What shade of black are you wearing tonight?"
"I think I'm going with a slightly faded black shirt with classic black pants."
"Oh, good, I got this new black outfit (black black shirt and black black pants), that will go with my hair. I was hoping to wear it and not clash with anyone else or look like we all dressed each other. Now if I can get the others to not wear the same shade of black as me I'll be good. You know drummers. He likely will."
Oh I know. It was a thing. I'm just weird and always was perplexed by seeking to stand out by wearing the same thing as everyone else, at least in my herd. Certainly not an isolated thing by any means. I think weird at times.They were Goth Metal... it goes with the territory.
And glare at the lighting guy that says "you know, there are other colours; ones that will make it easier to be seen on a black stage with a black backdrop and black amps..."I'm always curious about wardrobe conversations some bands must have.

Add a little brown to the wardrobe and they could be steam punk...They were Goth Metal... it goes with the territory.
Don’t try to confuse me. You’d be late to the party.Yeah, I don't think it meant what Stealth thinks it meant.....
Gave up beer? Sacrilege. 36 pack in the locker room and you couldn’t leave until it was all gone.Because they gave up beer that was holding them back?
Not a reflection of NY by any stretch, just a rant about many rock concerts - I just don’t get the whole mosh pit thing.I'm always curious about wardrobe conversations some bands must have.

Agree, though I'm not too fond of the orchestrations on it. Squire's bass is way up in the mix which helps. "Astral Traveller" is probably the best cut.
Flash was OK, their bassist and main songwriter Ray Bennett had a great Ric sound too. Colin Carter the vocalist is an acquired taste, a bit like Dave Lawson in Greenslade (who I like more). Speaking of that band, the bassist Tony Reeves had a superb sound with his Telecaster bass and drummer Andrew MCulloch (ex- King Crimson and ex- Fields) is just amazing.
Despite what the header says the first three songs are mimed in the studio.
Pub quizz fact: that Telecaster bass was later sold to Tony's bandmate in Curved Air, a drummer named Stewart Copeland...he used it in his Klark Kent recordings for example.

What a freaking stupid bunch of testosterone fueled low IQ morons. When I was in my teens and early twenties I was pretty much an out of control fool and never backed down from a good fight, but even then I thought the mosh thing was stupid. Bands that encourage it and glorify it with air time on their videos (like this one) should be thrown in the middle of the mosh to see how well they fair.
Ok, rant over, I now return you to our regularly scheduled Tbird love fest and what looks like a pretty good deal…
