I want to let you guys know first. I can get you an SVT-VR 50th anniversary model for $1000, in virtually new condition.

If you ever wanted an SVT, now is your chance. Local guys can pick it up, but he will also ship it, for added costs of course.

My 50th Anniversary Heritage was 1400 which was a DEAL, this is a STEAL.

If you want an SVT don’t sleep on this!!!

That is a steel of a deal!

I still have my one and only bass lesson. Anyone know the song--without playing it?

Ah, sorry those are scales. The song was on the back and was Mary Had a Little Lamb. I should read before I post!

I had not heard this until today, great cover of one of Elton's best songs by Metallica, well worth the watch!

That was great. I confess to being an Elton fan. His work from that time was amazing.

Your band needs a more descriptive name - how about “Dave and the Half Pints”



Never was a huge EJ fan, I liked a lot of his music but it really just wasn’t the type of music I was into when he was at the peak of his popularity (yellow brick road, caribou ranch… era). But that song(s) was always my favorite of his.

It was a pretty far departure from most of his other songs (crocodile rock, YBR, your song, Benny and the jets…) which were more bubble gum pop than rock to me. And as far as the Metallica performance, I’d have to agree with Elton when the camera panned to him in the audience and he said “Amazing”. It’s a fantastic cover and every bit as good (maybe even better) than the original. Thx for posting!

Have to admit I always hated Crocodile Rock. A LOT! I even like Don't Go Breaking My Heart, but can't stand Crocodile Rock.

Elton's music was always hit and miss for me. There were several songs on this album I liked. This one, Funeral/Candles, and All the Girls Love Alice leap to mind.

No love for Tiny Dancer?

I spent a minute trying to remember a song around those scales and gave up. Although it could have been a Rick Derringer solo at an Edgar Winter concert I saw.

Not quite.

Canada Post still can’t tell me where my purplebird is but insists it will be here tomorrow (the 30th). USPS started tracking it in Vancouver on the 28th, says it’s in LA in customs (why LA?), and should be here by the 1st. We’ll see!

Yes, very.
The Ginger Beer and the Lemon, Lime and Bitters (refreshing on a hot day, the bitters removes any cloying sweetness that some lemon squash / lemonade drinks have) are what I go for.

Lemon Squash and gin or vodka works well on a hot day in Noosa...
