Pity all we guys are so so far away...a great get-together Covid BBQ knocking elbows and sharing a bevvy (having a beer or 2) and a couple of mystery bags on bread (BBQ sausages) with dead 'orse (tomato sauce or ketchup) would be a wonderful idea.
Such a great idea.... I agree, my brother.

Loll no..its a Hahn Premium Light Beer tinny made here in my home city of Adelaide South Australia..these days I only drink 1 glass of red wine with dinner at night..the doctor told me to do it and that's my story and i'm sticking to it!

Ha! I spent six months in Melbourne years ago and thought that can looked like a Dr. Tim's which, if memory serves, was also from Adelaide. Don't remember it being particularly good. My drop when I was down there was Cascade Premium Lager from Tasmania with those cute little extinct Tasmanian tigers on the bottle. That's me on the right at a conference in Sydney. Lots of good music down there in Oz land!

Thanks Peavey for a great US made working mans bass guitar and rig.
My '91 Dyna Bass and Peavey MKIV rig have been together the best part of 30 years and played hundreds of well paid gigs over that time. The gear has paid for itself many times over, never has let me down and still sounds as good as the day I bought them.

The MKIV Peavey rig and 1820 cab is a killer combination when using my Rics and Maton Fretless as well.
