Thunderbird Club

[WillyW]

Pretty sure The Ballad of John & Yoko was just John & Paul.
Paul drums, bass, piano and vocals
John guitars and lead vocals.
Might be a bit different to that but I bet Paul jumped onto the drum stool.

I thought Tommy Smothers was involved with that one....

Looks to me like it roughly translates to…

My Queen, My Leader Veronica,
curator of the terrific, grand, and the mighty renowned Thunderbird IV
Celebrating since the 21st of September 1992*

*the stone carver made a typo on the year, unfortunately no auto correct on the chisel.

Honestly, you guys are the best.

The black one.....................

I’m one of those OCD types when it comes to Bass Guitars. When I find a model that I really like I want to have all of the colors that they came in.

Thank goodness that doesn’t apply to wives and cars..I’d be broke now for sure

I think you’re pretty close.

My Spanish is very rusty...it's been a while since I've watched Sanford and Son. Learned everything I know about Spanish watching Fred. Very educationo El TVo programo.

Snagged from Yo La Tengo's third night's photos at Invalid Link Removed.

I wonder what strings those are. Hard to tell because of lighting.

 

[KaraQ]

Figuring out the bass-line now ...

It's pretty fun to play, imo

Look blue and could be Sadowsky--I believe some of their strings have blue silks. Dean Markley's do as well.

Yep. They switched instruments among the group, had guest appearances on a few tracks, etc. But Purdie never ghosted for Ringo.

 

[Blazer]

LOVE that song, although it sounds more like Tom used a P-bass on that one.

I’m not usually like that at all, BUT it does look like I may end up with both the Inverness green and burgundy NR’s, and the Embassy bass in red and green..

Here’s what I recently learned at the el mercado:

If you want Cool Whip, requesting culo whip-o is something entirely different

It may, or may not, be bueno...

I don't even want to know was the original intent of the cool whip was, and no pics of what happened in your learning process.

fortunately I took one semester of Spanish in the seventh grade - so now I speak and read “fluid” Spanish (the more tequila you drink the more it sounds like Spanish).

As for Sanford - si, Julio est a mucho funito charactia.

I hadn’t heard that in years. Cool bass line and tone.

You owe me a new keyboard!
Fortunately ice tea cleans up easy.

I’ll drink to that!

Just add tequila!
