I never had anybody on the back of my bike when I use to ride.
Was hard to trust if they really knew how to be a passenger.

Side note: I think every motorcyclist who carries passengers (or who might do so) should have to ride behind someone once every year or two, just to keep perspective.

So agree with that.
Was something I did often because I knew a lot of motorcyclists in Cali back in those days.

not a big fan of effects with the exception of a little chorus here and there….

As I understand it, the current Epi(and Gibson?)"Mudbucker" is a TBird pup under a Mudbucker cover. I have an Epi EB-0 that I plan to replace its pup with a 30k wound aftermarket pup-maybe(it's my backup bass).

Some may have been, all the ones I’ve owned were similar in build but not 30k

If there was any effect I’d add. It would be chorus, a little goes a long way.

I can think of one current and great player in very famous multi award winning act. Just not rock. This is a recently acquired '64 II that's in great condition, but he has a number of Thunderbirds, Reverse and NR.

I got goose bumps every time MNF played his version of In the Air Tonight! The drums are explosively good too.
I wish they would release the full version minus the MNF overdubs. This small taste makes me want more!

Don’t worry Donnie, I was clueless on this one also.
I’m thinking… Singapore dollars? Nah that can’t be right!

I reckon neither one of us will ever have to worry about being on one of those flights anyway.

Last gig with Code Delta, our soundman said there was a problem with our singer's Beta 58. He wanted her to use his Beta 58, so they just swapped her mic grille onto his mic. The same grille also fits SM58s.

Oh, yeah. I also have Clorox wipes in my duffel.

Dusty Hill at one point used a touch of chorus. Just left it on as I recall.

Me too. CS does a fantastic job singing it. Just about sounds like Phil. I skip the Snoop Dog nonsense. Just sounds like a train wreck because one awful thing was forced into a good thing to make 20-somethings happy. I've had other people comment that they like it until it gets to the part that in no way sounds good.

Yes strip away all of those overdubs and give me the complete song! The lead strips paint off the walls!

I used to use a phaser on a few tunes but that phaser 'died' and the one I have now kinda sux.

That song was so overplayed in Miami, I can't really listen to it.

The original or Chris Stapleton's version? I was sick of the original from Radio days but Stapletons small tid-bit version makes me want more. Wasn't that a big song on Miami Vice?

According to [stuff] I've been reading lately, the originals(mid 60s)were wound to around 30k. Now, I hafta admit I don't really understand that [stuff], but I do know that mid 60s EB-0s/3s were known for blowing speakers. They were hot.

Yeah, and they played it so much that I can't stand it or Phil Collins, for that matter. I mentally tune it out.

and Ft Laud…….

My sentiments exactly.
