Thunderbird Club

[Miles_ONeal]

Was on Grandfather duty with a sick grandson the other day. Found an unexpected Thunderbird sighting!



Tsehay on bass. I know she isn’t playing it in the clip, but I think (correct me if wrong) that she looks like she might be able to play bass if needed.
She has had a bit of a life, Australians adopted her from Eithiopea as a baby, grew up in a small town about 1/2 hr south of where I am. Has been a Champion in Salsa Dance, joined the Wiggles at age 16 (19 now) and plays a few instruments I think.

I’ve read somewhere that she does.

The one I used to hang around with was pretty upright. Which is odd, for someone who lived in a honkytonk.

My mom knew an older piano - a spinnetster.

I saw they have a song with Jamaleen “Play the Bass”

Wow. Don't see those often. Depending on the age that is easily worth well over $100k at least if not way over $200k.

I once knew a piano. She was grand.

Knock it off you two. Mike is supposed to start bad joke days off. He has seniority. And the jokes to back it up. Respect the age.

After scolding, I must give credit for nice word play. That was thoughtful.

Now stop!

Test fit looks like I hoped... just "Y-like" enough to be semi-trad, but different.

I like. And light!

Balance point for the whole necķ, all hardware in place except the rod cover I haven't made yet, is right at the 4th fretline.

That looks great!

In the world of pianos.....
No slackers in my family.

Here's about 3 minutes of one of the guests playing that Bosendorfer, it was amazing in that room, I teared up.
Love what this guy did with the song too!

He must have been napping.

He has seniority.

That only applies to jokes in Spanish.

Well, I guess you can Spinet any way you want, but it’s still pretty Grand of you to consider some of us Players when we don’t even tinkle the ivory. Personally, I can think of 88 reasons I’m not a piano player, no doubt about it, it’s all pretty black and white.
Always got a kick out of this guy though…
