Thunderbird Club

[JIO]

The rehearsal/audition #2 w/drummer Phil went well. He proved himself to be "one of us" in a few ways that would be hard to explain. Bottom line he said; "the material is challenging, but I really like the songs" So far, a keeper.

[sleddogn]

Yeah, push pull distortion circuit on it...and those orange speed knobs..
Still for sale, won't lie, kinda surprised it lasted this long despite the price

Thunderbird Thursday follies.......
A big "Thank you" to Will @Gaolee for dinner tonight, seems I'll have a hitchhiker on my trip to Hollister!

It'll ride in style, Subies rule!

Some of the best!

Whoa check out the specs on that one.

What is the “passive distortion circuit?”

 

[sleddogn]

Guessing it's similar to what Jake at Serek does to his Grands....switch activates a passive distortion

Yep. It was amazing good old Joe hung around. I guess it was for the money.

He said at the last concert I saw, which was from Australia, that he had quit drinking and had a song about it. Said he got drunk years and years ago and just stayed drunk, so that was the first time in Oz sober. I think he's likely goodnatured. Don H. and Glen were likely insufferable. Glen was gone and his son played and sang.

I thought this interesting as well…

Years ago, when asked “Who was the most talented vocalist in the Eagles band” Don Feldner replied…

“Don Henley could sing the New York phone book" but I am telling you, the reader, that song for song, Randy Meisner has, indisputably the most naturally gifted and soulfully beautiful voice of the entire EAGLES membership.

I believe Don F.

Really love that bass for some reason. The rig ain't bad either....

Sweet deal in the Huston area…

Looks like someone snagged it.

Great to hear! Getting people that click can so illusive. You can often find good players, but if the chemistry isn't right it's only a matter of time before something blows up.

Walsh does seem good natured. Kind of like the uncle with issues, but who has a kind heart.

It’s hard to say. A lot of strong egos in that group.

While I no facts to dispute this with, Felder wasn’t exactly best friends with Henley or Frey.
I always preferred Neil Young’s Tonight’s the Night to the Eagles’ entire output.

Estimated delivery: August 3rd.
I bet it arrives until friday; someone said "patience is a virtue".

It doesn't take long, already arrived in town.

I missed the forecast by one day.... arrived yesterday.




I do not know if Dakota or Torino redish.

According to serial number is 1994.
I asked from the previous owner "tell me her story with you".
According to him, he bought it from a friend 10 years ago, and had been playing in the church's worship band.

Tonight’s the Night is a great album.

Yes, well said.

I just agree with Felder's statement about Randy. I'm sure Felder had some ego as well.

I like the red, regardless which one it is. Looks great.
