Thunderbird Club

LOL - not to be confused with the left-wing echo-chamber, which is pretty much every single media outlet that isn’t AM radio. I’d gladly say good riddance to both. I just wanna hear music!

as if
 
heard on the tube today that car manufacturers are no longer installing AM radios in cars…..

Yeah, because it adds so much weight to the car...or AM is so complicated...don't like people getting all that emergency information, or people don't like AM Talk radio (which provides data and info many "news" seem to not find or simply decide for people they need or don't need to hear and think for themselves. Take your pick. I'll go with censorship. If you can't beat them. Eliminate them.

Damn I'm so envious of that box, never could afford it. I wish they will eventually release the live albums separately. I have the Guilford '80 and Glasgow '77 which were released by Madfish after the box.

I've seen photos from 1972 where Martin plays a Thunderbird II. Was it the first one he got from Pete Watts?
The first one was from Watts. To replace his Ric that the neck got broken on and then disappeared.

I'm detecting a pattern in your pics, but there is something of an anomaly.
You always have a Thunderbird in hand...
Or have a Manhattan in hand...
But never both. Maybe there's a safety factor, but I can't put my finger on it.:D

Bonus: The bass goes nicely with your great looking yard.

It never ceases to amaze me at how quickly the trees just "pop" open every spring, the red dwarf maple and the very large green one at the right side of the pic were practically bare a couple weeks back. We're having a pretty nice stretch of warm weather just now, should perfect for the band's trip to the North Coast!

And then I have to escape town or end up with allergies for weeks...

It certainly looks like a wonderful place to "just be" and relax. Nicely done. Unless those crazy people are inside going to town playing that darned rock-n-roll!:laugh:
