Where I come from a 'brown-eye' is slang for something. Just saying.
...it carries the same connotations here.

I meant to say 'standard repertoire' but was unable to correct this as the TB gods have -- capriciously -- time limited the edit function.

Thank you for your kind words. I'm not sure Mark would appreciate being bracketed with a stone cold hack, but what's he gonna do about it?
Now the message makes sense. I've also been bit recently with an edit time out, wonder if they've changed the timing on them.

As for the Duchess of Oz collaborating with the Duke of Rock - he's in. You should ping him to get the ball rolling. The two of you are some of the most creative free thinking composers I know. It would be too cool, maybe call it "Ode to 62".
 
Happy (Canadian) Thanksgiving (Columbus day in the US) to all.

NSD. New straps day! I love the smell of new premium leather.
And happy THUNDERBIRD Friday! I’m in a totally great mood. After seeing an amazing Son Volt show last night, I came home from work to new Italia straps in the mail. I ordered twin black with black suede backs for the Epi Goth and the Epi Pelham Blue birds. With decent straps, THUNDERBIRDS do not neck dive. Even the blue with the strap button on the upper bout.

He is, but he's in Oklahoma. The King family had 12 boys and they are all spread out now.

This is pretty funny - "aqua-maids", "Lil' Indian" (could it have been made by the Indian Motorcycle Company?), Dick Clark's sexist quips and (of course) a white teen couple won the dance contest... 1968.



Ok, Australian Bandstand 1966 in glorious blank n white.

Includes dorky presenter (who later was the premier TV newsreader in Sydney for a generation), early Easybeats (wish it didn’t cut off when Wedding Ring was starting up), and a smattering of Brown Eyed Girls dancing. :)

Sydney TV when I was 4. :laugh:
