Love this 'band', this song, this bass-line (based on something Fela Kuti would come up with) Saw them in SF - awesome show.

Done right! Porsche always spells it with a Y
Who besides Gio plays in/around Pacifica? Chuck, don't you? Who else? What are your band names? Just realized a friend who moved to California lives there.
yeah fascinating stuff…..pretty unique to Italian car manufacture…..many of those italian coach builders used to build horse carriages before the advent of the motorcar and just continued…..if you notice, sports (luxury) car manufacture in other countries (Porsche, Jaguar, Mercedes', Aston Martin…) typically had the industrial design and styling done in-house ….just like over here we could recognize Pontiac from Chrysler from a Mercury, in Italy, folks recognize the coach builders before they recognize the brand…..trippy…Thanks for that "in-the-know" industrial design history lesson - I love learning about this stuff! I agree - that's how design innovation happened then! But I'm actually blown away (via Pinterest) by the sophistication of car/motorcycle/bicycle innovation going on today - I'd have to believe it's at a new high-level.
Today you can tell Pontiac from Chrysler from Mercury because only one of them still makes cars.

Sorry Miles, I haven't heard of them. Just looking at the website now, they seem like something I'd like to see sometime.@RedVee Are you familiar with the Lincolns? Their bass player just joined the Combo club.
But that's how he hollowed out his helmet?

Seems I recall someone else playing one, not that model though. If they only made that one I'm confused. But the name sticks out and I think that popped up when searched a long time ago for what someone was playing.Zemaitis custom bass.

He said they have played all over. Maybe they don't now?Maybe a silly question, how do you know it's RHD from that picture?
