Thunderbird Club

Don't ask me how I know this, but there is a horrible Hallmark movie (Aren't they all horrible??) that features a white Thunderbird in a couple of shots in a music store. I apologize for knowing this. Please don't ban me.

We are about ALL things Thunderbird.

All means all.

Speaking of shared birthdays...

Anyone here besides me share a birthday with a great bassist?

My shared birthday is with none other than, John Paul Jones which is freakin' awesome because Led Zeppelin is by far my favorite band from that era. Very unfortunate that he never picked up a Thunderbird or any Gibson that I know of for that matter.

You have to wonder if he ever gave Gibsons a chance since one of his most noted contemporaries(JAE) played them during his heyday.

John Richard Baldwin (born 3 January 1946),[1] better known by his stage name John Paul Jones, is an English musician, composer and record producer who was the bassist and keyboardist for the rock band Led Zeppelin.

He did have and played an EB-1, there's a picture in the wheel of Led Zep III.
 
*raises hand*..........Dec. 27 :unsure:

Mom? Why is my birthday present in Xmas wrapping paper?

I always felt like one of my gifts was held back for my birthday... I'm guessing you did as well. :laugh:

I've had a look around the internet and I'm unable to find a pic of him with an EB-1. I did find this pic though it's not from his time with LZ. Can you show me the pic you're talking about?

There are only a couple of things that would get me to watch a Hallmark movie. But women who have a friend who is interested are few and far between...
