Thunderbird Club

[fasterpussycat]

I've never even attempted to play it and try to avoid even hearing it when possible. YMMV

That statement covers pretty much 100% of the repertoire for me.

Excellent - more Gloria Jones than Soft Cell. And certainly not Marilyn Manson (although that arrangement is good too).

Scorpions.....

Does that Radiator work, Jeff?

 

[Chucky Stiletti]

Puts on a good show. Saw him a few years ago. No flash needed. Enjoy!

he's got Jason Bonham's band..should be fun..

It does. Massive heat. You'll be comfortable here.

 

[Miles_ONeal]

we get our fair share of brown recluse, black widows and the occasional scorpion but tarantulas?..

I will take tarantulas over those any day.

Spiders are a phobia
Definition of PHOBIA

for me, doesn't matter if they're harmless to humans or not, if it's in the house, it dies - even if it means driving over it with a Subaru or fire.

That was me for decades til I got healed.

 

[Miles_ONeal]

Just in case nobody else got around to this. Ox, if not a Thunderbird.

Long a fave.

I can't sing, and barely play. But here's a quick nasty crud sound clip on on the burst bird.
And talk about crud recording. Bird, amp, iphone. Don't hate on me now.
I try to do bad, good. Well, i try to try. Use cans, please. And than you can laugh at me all ya want.

Great tone!

 

[Miles_ONeal]

the song is like a cartoon but a total winner with any crowd...young...old..etc....people love to sing along...soooooo...we play it...

I was at a Kevin Prosch concert. Wrapping up at night in a parking lot. September in DFW. Still 100F near sunset. All 500 people- from 2 to 90 or so, were dancing when BEG was played. Canes, wheelchairs, didn’t matter.

Picked up a bottle of this today, from your area. Jester King is great.

Great tone!

Thanks Ken!

That's a beautiful rebuild! Very well done!


Not sure what it is about BEG but I absolutely detest playing that song. I'd rather play Freebird, Mustang Sally and McArthur Park back to back than even think about playing BEG. I think it might be because it's one of those songs every bass player is supposed to know by heart and be able to play in their sleep. I've never even attempted to play it and try to avoid even hearing it when possible. YMMV

...but how do you really feel about it?

 

[JIO]

Are bears Catholic? Does the Pope...

...drink wine?

I knew his brother Joe...

Any time I hear that riff from I Want to Take You Higher, I say (sometimes out loud, sometimes to myself) "I am the wolfman!" And it is all because of the Hilarious House of Frightenstein.

Wasn't aware of this - I think I should thank you but I'm not sure...

Thanks for sharing! This is for you Jeff (it came up when your vid ended)
