...
Now if you could get a band set up so that everybody twirls their instrument at the same time, that would be a sight.

Especially the drums.

When you have the opportunity, could you update my name on the list ? (790)
Danke

Looks like she got it.

Some of you are a bad influence (and I mean that as a compliment). I ordered a set of these to try out but not sure which bass to install them on. The 2001 is the only Gibson in need of fresh strings but one of my P-J loaded Birds needs a new set as well.

Nice sun dress. Should probably wax that hairy chest if he's gonna wear a deep plunging neckline though.


You can't catch me dead in shorts, I even wear jeans to the beach and golf slacks when golfing. Swim trunks when I'm swimming is as close as I get to shorts.


Always liked that song.

Some serious drumstick twirling at 1:38 and a couple of other places in the video.

Of course nothing like the first time I saw the ZZTop twirling guitars, that was way cool and ultra cheesy all at the same time. But that pretty much sums up ZZTop (Tube snake boogie, tush, Pearl necklace, legs... all come to mind).

Or stand still as statues and twirl their amps. Wireless, of course.

Especially the drums.

I was assuming the drummer would just spin their sticks, but I guess there's always this option (see clip at 1:13 mark)...

Hey, "Round and Round" returned to the Billboard Top 20 thirty-six years after its release, thanks to the commercial, so the royalties might be looking a little better than they used to.

Commercials - the new marketing for hair metal bands to get in front of the spotify generation...

Sorry, Crue rules....they did it first, plus Nikki's playing a Spector Non Reverse.

As always, we recommend a sense of humor, jump in anywhere you like - we encourage questions.

And watermelon helmets! Questions posed while wearing a watermelon helmet garner more intelligent answers.

I know the Interwebz can be a strange place, but, where do you find this stuff?




It it a watermelon helmet forum?

The internet is indeed a strange place. But Canada and particularly a prairie province that can be drawn with a ruler, are even stranger. Especially their football fans.

Absolutely the 2001. I use them with the TB+.

It’s true, you could have the best sounding rock band in the world but if the image isn’t there, it won’t work.

Yep. Case in point, Big Star. Wrong label, wrong management. Killed what coulda, woulda, shoulda been.

 

[MCF]

Uberslick...

And Uber gut.

 

[bassgtarman]

It took two months to figure that out? Once I got one and plugged it in, I knew another will follow in due course. They really are that good.

Oh, well, yeah, actually.... pretty much the same for me.

 

[MCF]

Hi guys. Do you happen to know if I can switch covers between bridge and neck pickups? Need to hide this dent under cover I got from thunderbuckerranchView attachment 3931355

WTH? Someone try to shoot you?

I've never really listened to them, but I know their guitarist Jody Davis from a non-music-related hobby of mine. He probably wouldn't know me from Adam, but I've met him and talked to him several times. I can't afford the things he makes that are part of my hobby that I know him from.

Hair metal lives on in the nostalgia of commercials...

Please stop with the crap from that particular insurance company. Please. Please. Please.

 

[MCF]

I wonder if any of them can be hired to play a backyard...

You never know. There are some members of bands into doing the house concert thing when they’re not busy. Start with an inquiry to the band’s management. Cost is usually plane tickets, a hotel room and a surprisingly reasonable fee to perform for a couple hours.

I wear shorts all the time. There was a time when I was in college that I wore only shorts for two years without putting on a pair of long pants. Biked everyday, rain or shine.
