Thunderbird Club

Oh no!!!!!!!!!! I have no money!!!

For Sale - Orville by Gibson Thunderbird

Love my Orville. It's the schizzz with a Thunderbucker.

 

[Klondike]

By saying that, you are giving Gibson/Epiphone license to chose not to produce Thunderbirds in the vibrant heather/bmm and pelham blue we all want. Through sustained drooling demanding through channels such as this can we hope to see fun coloured

Two country songs? I know the one with the wife/gf that leaves, the dog dies/runs away, and the pickup truck stops running.

What is the other one? Or are you including western in that in which case I now that song too - the one about being out on the range, eating beans and heading back into town.

I know of one about Mama and I know of one about prison, and trains, there has to be a train.

Speaking of Orvilles (the Thunderbird kind) and Country (or maybe Western), I have been listening to Orville Peck lately.

Not helping... Or maybe you are.

Written by Steve Goodman. Who else could write the perfect country and western song?

I had not heard of him. There's always somebody or something new to find out about.

The best description may be 'Goth-Country', then again it may not. He's from Vancouver BC -- nearly a local.

Or you can do slightly more advanced jazz by playing suspended diminished 17th chords polyrhythmically. People may look at you like you don't know what you are doing, but that is because they aren't listening to the notes you aren't playing.

You're too much.

The less politically correct Southern way of saying it is, "He just ain't right!

I like the way your mind works, doesn't work or what ever it does...it's a hoot when it does it!

You cat's are on a roll. But you know you can't open up for Richard Pryor still, right?

hummm... trying to hard (and derivative no less)



This is the real deal -

 

[PillO]

If there's no rodeos or dancin' or gals waitin' (or not) or cowboys gettin' shot, it's barely scratched the surface of C&W.

The line dancing songs are their own genre aren't they? Do they follow a I IV V vi progression too?

That's a cute name for the mod...

Modern country. Which is really pop with twangy guitars, trains instead of cars, and prison in lieu of oppressive parents/bosses.

By global standards he's a neighbor. Or was. I looked him up. He doesn't seem to sit still much.

I like the Stingray Sam.

I've gotten interested in Crobot recently. Not sure the description - alt rock, post punk, riff rock? Plug in and play loud.

Except for the ones the Beatles and Kinks wrote.

Beatles line dancing songs - now there's an interesting concept... Rocky Raccoon perhaps?

I didn't know that the Kinks and the Beatles did any songs together... I'll have to go looking for those on Spotify.

Maxwell's Silver Hammer - truly a great line dancing song and probably inspirational to Frank Zappa.

Other than the technical glitches early in the video, this may be the perfect 10,000 Maniacs live recording. The only things missing are more Natalie dancing and a THUNDERBIRD. (That said, the bass on this is beastly).



(Sorry that was missing at first. Ugh.)

Well what do you know. Another Maniacs fan. Hey Jack Kerouac is one of my favorite songs of all time. Love Natalie!
