Rat bast@rdsWelp, my company told me I have until Jan 1st to move back to Washington or we will need to "separate", so guess it's time to start looking for new work. Gotta love it right before the Holidays.

I like it very much. I think it's one of those underdog albums people like to bash without hearing it properly (not saying you haven't as I also understand why people don't like it) like "Rock In A Hard Place" by Aerosmith.Very cool! Well the bass. The album not so much
The band seems to hate it too but as the circumstances around the time it was made were pretty bad it's no wonder. There's still some great stuff on it. "Junior's Eyes" is a great one, "Shock Wave" could have worked with Dio too (much better than most of tge early Ozzy era classics) and I have a soft spot for "Over To You" and "Air Dance". Actually there's no single song I skip when I play it, not even "Breakout". Great sax playing whoever it is.
Ugh. I hate dumb stuff like that.Welp, my company told me I have until Jan 1st to move back to Washington or we will need to "separate", so guess it's time to start looking for new work. Gotta love it right before the Holidays.
I’ve listened to Never Say Die a few times over the years, but it never caught my ear. I’ll give another try!
Yeah... sorry to hear that. I can sympathize - and do -, but... since I've been really retired for 4 years, now (the first time didn't take), it's... hard to empathize. Any chance you can just retire? Or, if you go back - where to, in Washington? In any case; good luck...Welp, my company told me I have until Jan 1st to move back to Washington or we will need to "separate", so guess it's time to start looking for new work. Gotta love it right before the Holidays.

Yes, in the imaginary world I have created I'm perfectly normal.

Yes - I bought something similar at Tap Plastic here in SF. It comes in wide rolls in red, blue & white. I used it (blue) on my Teiscobluebird under a clear acrylic pg. It's more subtle/less 'swirly' but still cool. The key is to use silver mylar as the base-layer as the swirl material is translucent and it catches light better w/a silver base-layer. On my Coral, the swirl plastic is coated on the underside w/silver paint.
Left side shows the Tap Plastic material under the yellowed (from age) clear acrylic CDB pg and on the right the CDB plastic w/silver under-side.

Thanks so much Dave (and your wife)
for attending Winters' Customer Christmas today to see/hear our TSC show. We hit downbeat at 3:00 sharp and played our 13 song set to the minute at 45mins. I have to say we played well and had our sound dialed. One of the benefits of starting - we get there early and get our sound right. (no sound person- DIY) We were 1st of 6 bands and I got home at 8PM after hearing 3 other of the bands.We were (as always by plan) the less loud band - our motto is: the audience needs to hear and understand the vocal lyrics/words. And not that we weren't dynamic - ask Dave. Friends who have seen us many times thought we all sounded at our best today! The Coral Deluxe Bass through my Ashdown 550 Spyder/B15N cab sounded fabulous! I normally don't get compliments on my sound, but a few people I didn't know said it sounded great, and what kind of bass is that? One of the other bass-players saw Kirstin's keys amp (TC Electronics 1x12/250w combo bass amp) next to mine and thought I was bi-amping to get my "baritone" sound. (ala Wichita Lineman) All and all, a high note to end the year for our live schedule.
CJ & Corrine had catered food and lots of it - a good time was had by all! A very good, receptive live music loving crowd in Pacifica CA, 2 blocks from the left coast.

And Corrine pours a great gin and tonic, per my wife.
