Looks like it was sprayed with a fire extinguisher and then played.

It my fingers....I'm toxic.

That's an Epiphone, headstock is too big to be a Gibson and the lower 'Bout is offset.

I attended 4yr undergrad art school in KC/MO (KCAI) in the '70s and lived there for 6 years total. KC is known for jazz and their BBQ. Arthur Bryants is legendary and when dining there you drank what was on tap - ice-cold pitchers of Miller High Life or Pabst Blue Ribbon and it was perfect for complimenting their fine BBQ. Their sauce is unique and addicting. I still order it so I can at least revisit the taste.

apologies to vegans...

Which Hipshot extender key is used with a 1995 Thunderbird? Will the GB7 work?

That's the one I used, on 2000-2006 model, worked perfect

All of this Talk with Pictures of Broken Wrists and Carpal Tunnel has got me inspired for an Update. I had my Stitches and Brace removed Yesterday. My first O T Rehab starts on the 10th. Starting to get my Largely Swollen Fingers back to regular size. Not to good to look at every day. Going to be a bit of work involved to get the Full range of motion back. It's only time. On the Beer front there is none.

Pictures?

but oh so tasty….excellent pils for the money imho….

One of the last bands I was in was made up of me and 3 guys that seem to think they are not good enough for beer that wasn't one of the beers we all grew up with. We regularly drank PBR and Miller lite, unless I was paying. I got used to the PBR but would not go out of my way to drink it normally, especially when most bars around here charge the same for PBR that they do for some microbrew beers.

This and the Malt Liquor were my go to beers in high school…

…and as the punchline says - “It was the beer that made Milfamie walk us”

Look out for the Bull!

I knew it!

That's cool that you're playing key bass to keep rehearsals going.

A month is a long time!

The trouble with karma is that it takes too long to be effective. Operant training is much more effective when it is immediate. Do something bad, immediately get hit by a lightning bolt. Then a lesson is learned.

John thought it could instant.

 

[MCF]

Hangover in a can. Or bottle. Miller was an instant hangover. One beer and it was bad. Not quite as instant as Genesee or Rolling Rock, but close enough. I won't touch any of those.

You’re sensitive to the preservatives they use.

Our beer in high school? Beer!



It didn't really matter, especially after the 4th or 5th.

We even drank Coors or Oly.

It’s what the cool kids drink now. Go figure.

And there’s nothing wrong with that! I find it interesting that pros play that Epi. Best bang for the buck.

Geo?! Naughty?!
Nah, he's a teddy bear.

Not exercising I feel like I look like a bear... I can't wait to get back on the bike & loose some weight. This pic was taken post our TSC's/BG show two weeks ago. Paul & I had already took our bow-ties and tuxes off. (it was hot!)

L to R : Paul, Cherie, Steve, Kirstin, bear.
