Oh, this is the singer, or at least one of them: This '80s Rock Frontman Knows: What Could Be More Metal Than Sharks? .
Grrrrrrrrrrr...
I guess USPS might be messed up b/c of the weather around the country. My Pork & Pickle pedal is delayed somewhere between Atlanta & South FL. And only 1 pkg of knobs arrived today but I was expecting 2.
Hoping everything shows up tomorrow. That'll make for a fun weekend!

What a great story! And yeah... I recognized the song/video in the article when I played it.
Ok Larry says the 80s we're cool therefore NOW they are! Wise man.
The 80's weren't cool, i didn't know anything about Thunderbirds back then.

Totally, dude. Why? Fun.The 80’s were awesome! Hair bands and heavy metal ruled!
...at least in the circles I ran in.
I'll think you'll find they were valvular.

80s were definitely very uncool. Bandmates told me I'd be sacked if I so much as looked at a Thunderbird 'heavy metal bass'.
Skipping 20 pages?! That's unacceptable!!!!Woo Hoo! I'm finally caught up (OK, I skipped about 20 pages a week ago).

There are basses, and there are Thunderbirds!

One thing that's been baffling me for quite some time:
How does people know each other's actual names? It's not exactly written in one's profile - Or am I missing something here?
Some profile names kinda gives it away, but most don't...

Knowing each other in that other place... that alternate universe out there. For instance, Larry knew my name once we realized that I had bought vinyl Tbird logos from him out there just before I showed up in here.

Pretty sure Leslie was at the Dudepit ages ago and is a member at The Last Bass Outpost. 60's Thunderbird guys are a bit of a known quantity. We go after the same stuff and help each other out when we aren't circling like buzzards lol. Leslie sold me my Hiwatt 2150 cabinet. He also builds beautiful basses.One thing that's been baffling me for quite some time:

I only know real names based on seeing them pop up enough, or PM’s with a few members.
Hair bands & heavy metal!
Believe it or not, my 12 year old daughter will only listen to Hair Nation on Sirius XM in the car! I don't force it on her, but she heard me listening to that music and she loves it. That's my girl!
I totally believe it. My 12 y/o is a great(so I’m told) hard rock and metal drummer. I think he’s pretty good for his age. You can see him doing his thing on drums in this video and that’s my other son on the right rockin’ the SG.

I’ve got a spreadsheet.
Just kidding... I’ve got a decent memory for stuff I care about, Michael.
Tragically no. I am on the horns of a dilemma.
There is TBird in Japan keeps calling it's siren song out to me and the Blue Floral would not fit in the budget, if I get the Bird.
Gotta a gig tonight:
