Picked the Greco backup last night, had a local artist paint the pickguard for me, and it came out incredible!

Awesome! Some comparisons of the three would be great, if you have time.
yeah, was down there this week....took me 45 minutes to cover 12 miles....
I walked in LA. They made it difficult to get anywhere, and I sang the song the whole time, but I walked.
Step 1: Get 3D printer
Step 2: Churn out posable, miniature TB/TB queens.
Step 3: Profit!
Just send them one section of vine with the the instruction:"drop this and run".
Yeah, that few seconds while it roots before it starts growing can be crucial to staying far enough ahead of it to survive!
locals were saying they just don't leave their home or immediate neighborhood cause it just takes too long to get anywhere.....drag....
It's been years since I went, but it was crazy.
What a thoroughly unpleasant week it has been and the next week promises to be unpleasant also.
We have a situation where one band member's commitment cannot be questioned (in fact commitment strays over the border into obsessive behaviour which the rest of us find 'freaky') but said commitment far outstrips musical ability. The outcome is inevitable, but it's not something I'm looking forward to and hopefully will be the first and only time we need to do it.

Shouldn't that be Rhode-Island-Hyphen-Day
4 string 'bird, Midtown, JC, and Yamaha (the couch bass) stay EADG. The EB3 is BEAD. Might have to add another EB3 for DGCF
The way the EB3 bodies resonate, they're probably illegal in certain states of the USA.

A miniature would still be about six feet tall, including platform shoes.

Oh, damn. So hard to find the balance, because... people. Which instrument is this?

I cannot like this. It is a shame. It seemed like you had finally out personnel problems behind you.
It's never easy is it?
Steve Gadd said "People are more important that music" and I try to apply that as much as I can. But there's still that line where one person is making it a bad situation for all the other people. Good luck!
Ehhh... sorry.
By way of consolation, know that most bands who do anything remarkable, which is what most of us are anticipating, experience any of a number of personality, emotional, or otherwise static-inflicting issues within their ranks. Whatever you have to march through, keep your eyes on your prize. You will get it.
Called up short by an out-of-stater!
True. However one mustn't let oneself be derailed by other people's issues. People can be agency for trouble.
That's not to say one should be unkind.
I've seen some amazing shows in Rhode Island (all Providence). Am I anywhere near qualified to criticize?
This looks killer. Kind of "Partridge Family meets Plan 9"... Plan 9 was a little scary back in the 80s.
(Ok nevermind my descriptions... I was going for Peter Max next...)
