Thunderbird Club

[theFixer]

The one for my handcuffs

Can you be more specific?

 

[Gaolee]

It's 16C.

Balmy! It's about that temperature here this morning, and I'm luxuriating in the warmth, wearing shirt sleeves. I'm not quite as furry as a cat, so there's that. It may or may not be relevant to being warm enough.

 

[Gaolee]

Oh then it's

HOW do I know this stuff?

I don't know how you know this stuff. It's probably some kind of brilliant miracle of genius or something.

The embassy's not ugly...

Did a short rehearsal with them this morning...went pretty well...I think :/



This damn kid does a ton of songs in Bb and Eb. Eb on upright is fine, but I hate it on electric bass. Nowhere to go in the blues stuff

IME it depends on the wind. When I was driving, I'd get out to drop the wagon in shirtsleeves down to about 30*F rather than bundling up for 5 minutes then debundling after I was back in the cab.

Or an Acoustic! That's how I roll baby! The only way I can acquire stuff without my wife crucifying me...

Yeah before the lumbar laminectomy..

A bit expensive but if it can interest someone:

[Dr_Feelgoood212]

And it probably works for you. Darn kids these days.

Some days it does.

There are enough Ampeg fanbois who will pay a lot for an old head like that. You might be able to track down a 360 with the profits. A 370/301 stack for sure. Finding a 320 and 408 cabinet might be tougher, but I like those almost as much as a 360/361 stack. Yeah, I'm a fanboi. Guilty as charged.

Some days it does.

You must be mature beyond your years when it doesn't. Computers know. You hit a certain birthday and they know. It causes them to disable functions that used to work.
