6 to go...
 
Masterfully played, sir!

I’m mostly thinking I hope my tech is done working on the ‘02 by the time I’m back in town on Monday. Not optimistic as he said he had about 20 guitars ahead of mine. He said if not Monday, mid week next week. Experience tells me to at least double that before I start making concerned phone calls

Last thing you wanna hear. My guy was so backed up at the time, took three weeks.
 
She's in Oz. They don't have snow there, let alone snowmobiles. Besides, it's spelled differently.

Not strictly true. It was snowing in Tasmania just the other day (dunno what's up with all this weird weather, like it always happens right?).

NSW skifields make snow, which is funny/strange depending on your point of view. I have not seen this myself, but it's mentioned on the news in what passes for Winter.

Hell, I woulda had FUN at that show!!! Nobody ever thinks to do Small Faces tunes here in the States! We got all the Skynyrd you can eat though...
Just found a video of some of one of our sets when I had major hair going on! We went through a phase of being obsessed with 70s rock epics - loads of fun!
 
Running out of Kat names ... KatBird (NR41) and ThunderKat (Epi) are already taken.
What about (The) Katatonic? It has a kind of punk/grunge sensibility to it. The brut sonic force of your bass playing pummels the listener into a stupor.

There is also a form of catatonia refered to as catatonic excitement, which could apply to playing style and stage presence.

"The patient runs aimlessly through the lunchroom due to an episode of catatonic excitement, knocking over objects without apparent regard, and ignoring all outside attempts to stop or redirect her." (Like Iggy Pop)

It might also be a cocktail.

Would also describe the condition some of us exhibit.
