Stopping by to say hey. Wills bass sure looks amazing, Kat got an awesome cello, funny church signs....did I miss anything?

Out playing Sturgis at the moment. We’re doing 17 shows in 10 days...3 shows left!

Took my Cataldo NR41 on the road for the first time. I use it a lot for recording, but never tour with it for some reason...until now! This thing is a beast. Thunderbucker ‘66 pickup. My normal Bassburner strings were a bit too grindy for this gig, so I slapped some Cobalts on and they sound terrific on this bass, I think :)

Nice! Stay away from and out of the giant Jack bottle. That can't end well!:D
 

Lots of Knobs in Oz.

NSW is home, apparently, to Mount Great Groaner, Flirtation Hill, Boozer Creek and The Boobs – along with Sydney locations Rooty Hill, Balls Head and Pleasure Point. Meanwhile Queensland has Two Mile Knob, Mount Blowhard, Mount Breast, Mount Mistake and the cheerfully blunt Ugly Creek.


I’ve been atop of 2 Flirtation Hills. One each at Mudgee & Gulgong. Always a good view from there.
 
Kelowna is inland from here and gets substantially colder in the winter.

Yep, she kept it in an enclosed sun room.

My Uncle had me confused for 15 mins or so when they were over. A keen golfer, He mentioned that he only played golf 6 months of the year.
As a Sydney boy that was incomprehensible. He then showed me a picture of the golf course in winter.

Good get Mickey.

Stumbled on this, I don't think it's been posted before, Mick's pretty damn cool and Trevor Bolder's sideburns are outrageous! There's even a bit of a clam by Bolder as they get towards the end of the solo.

You could still play with a practice ball. Painted a bright color. Maybe.

If he moved to the coast he could play year round more often than not.

Trevor seemed to slack on the rave-up out of the solo section (is that what you meant?)... which was a stupendous happening otherwise.
But I do like Bowie's harpmonica reference/nod to the hook from "Love Me Do", by the Beatles...
