Thunderbird Club

[Korladis]

I must be the only one here who doesn't like glam rock.

 

[Count Bassie]

I see, she was an actor then.

Actually she was a viable musician in her own right. The TV gig was more incidental.

 

[Count Bassie]

I must be the only one here who doesn't like glam rock.

I'm not a big glam type either actually. Tull, Mountain, Cactus are more my style... and some of the punk bands that had really good players, like X, Dead Kennedys...

 

[Count Bassie]

She played Pinky?!?! Never made that connection, oh I had such a crush in her...



Wasnt it portraying the 50's?

You'd think so, but it was that period before the hippies took over the American culture thing. "Where were you in '62?"...

 

[Count Bassie]

Actually, it wasn't; it was Roz Kelly that played Pinky. Ah, whatever.

You sure?

 

[MCF]

Happy Days was good until Fonzie, on water skies, jumped on the back of a shark. Hence the phrase, "jump the shark." Suzie Quatro was pretty cool to those of us who came of age in the seventies and there wasn't a lot on TV..

 

[Ross W. Lovell]

I don't think I've posted in this club yet. Here's my Epi-bird (namesake bass ) upgraded w/Lollar pups and Hipshot Supertone bridge. Currently strung up with DR Hi Beams. Great midrange clean tone from this axe and does fuzz/OD well.

What era is the HiWatt?

 

[Pelham Bleu]

What era is the HiWatt?

Reissue, circa '05.

[TBird1958]

Me and Mr Jackson playing some Duran Duran as part of Seattle's Pride ( sorry for the dogy pic, there should some better ones soon) - We even made the local NBC affiliate's news
We had great FOH from Kelcema Sound, a very fun day!

 

[hillerup]

...I was GAS free. Now I'm not. Oh, well, the correct number of Thunderbirds is one more...

My name is Michael and I'm a birdaholic...

I've been resisting the GAS for 7 month, but today I couldn't handle the peer pressure anymore, and fell off the wagon and purchased another bird on EBay....

 

[Klondike]

I must be the only one here who doesn't like glam rock.

No your not!

 

[Klondike]

Your think so, but it was that period before the hippies took over the American culture thing. "Where were you in '62?"...

Lol I didn't exist.

 

[Count Bassie]

Lol I didn't exist.

I was 1. So, I sort of existed...

 

[RedVee]

Thought this may be of interest :
Jack Bruce playing a Thunderbird?

 

[Pelham Bleu]

Played two gigs with the namesake axe last night. Hot summer night!

Clip? You really have a lot of nice birds. I get GAS every time you post one. It is going to be impossible to save up to get the Ric I want. Not to mention the daphne blue jazz (I've wanted one since I was like 12) now that it is an option via the new mod system on you know who's website. It's posts like these that distract my focus and makes me think I should get another bird!

 

[MCF]

Thought this may be of interest :

I think all the great bassists of that era, except maybe Paul, or maybe the Duck, flirted with playing one at one time or another.

 

[RedVee]

So, where do I find information on setting up an Epi Tbird Goth?
What's good for cleaning the Matt finish paint job?

I use one of those white Magic Sponge Erasers - They clean dirt and grime right of without making the finish shine.
