That is more tequila than I can handle under any body chemistry state. I am a wimp that way. Good Scotch is another matter.

I havent had a good scotch in quite a while. Just hasn’t sounded good to me for some wierd reason. You would think that would never happen with the percentages of Scot and Welsh in me, and a wee bit of Irish and German for good measure. Bourbon is where I have settled for the last couple years.

Until a coupla years ago, I had no use for Scotch-I had only tasted 'blended'. Then I tried 'Single Malt', expecting to dislike it too. Oh, My!Glenfiddich, Glenmorangie(and the other Glens), Balvenie. Mmmmmm.

People assume they don't like scotch when they have tried Johnnie Walker. Johnnie Walker is a blend of several fine single malts with some sort of continuously distilled turpentine. It is inexpensive and there is a reason for that.

Related good advice:

If the gin you are about to consume has a warning on the label about adding mix because of the risk of blindness, don't tempt fate* - get better gin.

* not the voice of experience, just the voice of misspent youth and prudence

Their Blue Label is pretty darn good.

Haven't tried it. That is the expensive one, so I would expect better. But for the price, I can get a very good single malt.

All true, I had a bottle given by my wife. I told her we would not touch it till we either bought a house or had a kid, we bought a house. now we have both but no Blue label to drink

Yes, inquiring minds want to know.

I was perusing the Sweetwater website this morning and see that Boom Bass Cabinets has a new 210 115 rated at a massive 2200 watts. Very compact but goes down to 30Hz. To say the least, it stretches credibility, but I am curious. Has anyone here tried one? I am not in the market for a cab; just curiosity gets the better of me...

Does it come with a handtruck-or a roadie?

My 'bitter half' used to drink "Black and White".

You shoulda been here a year and a half ago, 10-15 pages a day was not uncommon.

Yeah, the trifecta was Fixer/Christine/Kat. Those three could keep any thread full of fun new posts. Sadly, I just don't see any of them on here anymore. But carry on we must!
So.... everybody, Post a picture of your favorite bird rockin bassist (pro or amateur) in action!

Bowmore is one of my favourites.

took the words right out of my mouth....really lively around here when those three were around..
Favorite Bird player? hmmmmm.....

oh and this guy....LOL..

I bought a bottle of their platinum label thinking it would be really good (I know nothing about scotch, but wanted to see what all the club hubbub is here). I wasn't impressed. I want a smooth creamy rich drink (neat or on the rocks) that doesn't excel in alcohol burn all the way down to my gut.

I can get that with Rum, Tequila, Vodka or Gin. I just haven't found a whisky, bourbon or scotch I like yet. I'm sure there's one out there, but I haven't found it.
