Thunderbird Club

Camera so all my fans can see me better. OK, my one fan.

Well, it's actually a tuner. TC Electronics.

Totally out of the Thunderbird vibe, I really need one of those clip tuners, would you recommend that one !? Always used my trusty Boss pedal but will be playing on a "pedal free" area and one of those will be great.

Well since Tbird day fell on the third day of the month I might as well post my three pup BlingBird…

We had a drummer sit in a few times at church. He was amazing. Best drummer I think I ever played with. ZERO volume control. Even with Hotrods his was still insanely loud and also reached the loudest drummer I ever played with category as well. I get it can be a little difficult, but there is a volume control between the ears. Well, maybe.

I like loud drummers, especially drummers with a loud foot, got to hear that kick drum. I like big 24" kick drums. Pulse of the band for me.
 
Let's just say there's a reason I call a certain portion of my life "my hippie daze". I'd take (or drink) just about anything you handed me, with little to no regard to what I'd already taken or drunk. While this did make for some fun and interesting times, it also made for a number of times where I recall nothing, and have no idea how I got from where I (physically) started to where I ended up. Yet here I am, alive and well. I'm quite thankful, since not everyone is alive and well (although Johnny Winter made a good run despite doing a lot more than I did for a lot longer).


Yes, I'm lucky to still be alive although most of my debauchery :laugh: was done when I was still fairly young and including all sorts of things besides alcohol but lots of that too. I know well what it's like to wonder where your car is in the morning.

I woke up one morning and looked out at the driveway and there's no car there. I called up my then girlfriend and asked her to bring me to where I last remember taking my .......refreshments the night before. Not there, so I traced all the closest places and went the route looking in the parking lots, nothing. The last place was about a mile from my house, nothing, so I thought well let's just go home, it will turn up. :laugh: We go about a quarter of a mile and my girlfriend started laughing and said look, and pointed. The car was a few hundred feet off the road and had gotten stuck with the back wheels off the ground against a tall pile of dirt which had been there long enough to be totally surrounded by vegetation, trees etc. I must have passed out, went off the road and gotten stuck and walked home as it wasn't very far. I had to have it towed out.
