My favorite pic of our band - I had a friend who is a pro-photographer shoot a bunch of pics at one of our shows at Winters Tavern and this couple er.., injected themselves into the shot. FTR, Kirstin's hand is on her own knee, not on our female "guests" rump. (source of "madness" noted by Paul)
vi? Are you trying to start an editor war? Those are banned under the "no religion" posting rules.

I just auditioned, it would have helped if I knew how to play drums.

I wouldn't refuse one with wood, but everything else being equal, I'd prefer the more plain option.
As with most things.....
Our first one(47)was painted like that but so badly faded my dad had it repainted blue-IIRC.. The second one(53)was aircraft carrier gray.I wouldn't refuse one with wood, but everything else being equal, I'd prefer the more plain option.

Then Geo's band would be singing about you. But they're singing about Glen. And most counties don't have American football teams, anyway.
The one I was thinking of was similar to that. It was red (with "wood" panels), and gorgeous.
Good evening Thunderbird loving sisters and brothers. Happy to report that I took the new NR Bird to my lesson today and surprised the heck out of my instructor. He gave it a once over and convinced me to let him raise both pickups a bit. I have to say it gave it some additional growl. I very happy with it so far, it seems to have been built with great attention to detail. I may try some flats, or pressure wounds or some such on it soon.
I am attempting to learn Fool in the Rain by Led Zeppelin. My band is hoping to add it and I am having some difficulty with JPJ's bass line. I don't seem to have found the the right transcription yet. If anyone has any leads or advice on learning this song, I would greatly appreciate it. It is a great song, and the more I listen to it, the more I hear going on with his playing.
I hope everyone is having a good week. Stay warm. Stay well.
