Thunderbird Club

[JJR58]

Jeez, if I'd known you were "that" hungry I'd have you up for dinner - German food today.

I’ll take Chucks plate in June.

It's a nice quite day for Frank and I, snow is expected later on - we'll see.
Thanks to all of you from all over our world that come here and make this club the great place it is. May your day be all that you hope for, know the love of family and friends near or far.

Is it looking like June for you to be out this way? That would be really cool, Jeff!

Still my plan. I’m coming west anyway then.
Just gotta make it work to move up a little north from where I’ll be.

Have a great Christmas you lot. Looking at you from Boxing Day, Sydney Australia.

Just getting ready to settle in for the cricket. The traditional Boxing Day Test Match (5 days) in Melbourne, this year as part of the battle for the Ashes - that is, Vs England (the old enemy - since 1877).
The good guys are 2-0 after two, but it’s a 5 Test series and Melbourne often suits the English more than most of our grounds. Just Sydney and Hobart after Melbourne, but the series isn’t set yet even if I want it to be.

With the one and only Johnny Gustafson on bass. I believe he was recruited after The Big Three split. Fantastic bassist and singer. R.I.P.
He was never seen with The T-Bird after The Merseybeats (or before), maybe it was the band's guitar?

totally, “Love is the Drug” has one of my favorite bass lines ever…

TB *and* FB! Perfection.

 

[Miles_ONeal]

I don't really know much about them but I've seen other videos of them with other guitars, maybe they played what they thought was eye catching?

Or whatever someone gave them most recently.

Nice find. And a Firebird as well.

Gibson might have given those to them as a promotion.

I remember seeing a photo of the Four Seasons years ago with A Thunderbird and a Firebird too.

I can't believe it, I just found it:


"This TV clip is of the Seasons playing a medley of their hits. Nick Massi and Tommy DeVito are sporting matching Gibson instruments. Both are beautiful sunburst guitars from the 1963-64 era. DeVito is playing a Gibson Firebird VII while Nick Massi is holding down the bass on a Gibson Thunderbird bass."
