the old guy

'58 Silvertone, '61 Kay [both have Bigsby vibratos]'77 Fender Super Twin Reverb Boss Ns 2 Boss Blues Driver Boss DD 3 and a Nobels Tremolo...hey, it's all shit but it's MY shit!!! ;)

After reading a few blogs it got me thinking....the band used to make fun of me fer hangin' out in skid bars. They would rather do the "Single malt scotch and cigars" crowd....the "plastic people". Now it's seems to come 180!!! The "real" people are the freaks....like me. I remember leaving The Who show that we did at GM place half way thru their set and goin' to the American Hotel[NOTORIOUS skid bar] fer a $2 pint.Just felt more comfortable there. Matt's just comin' 'round to my way of thinkin' ;) Don't read too much into this.

Landscape prepping barre none!!! Digging holes in mud in the pissing, freezing rain is no fun!!! I'd rather werk at the flippin' pawnshop again....ick.

I'll get back to you on that....maybe tuned down to Eb and the E string tuned down to C#....I fergot about that tune down thing...Ah shit, I'll figer it out... ;)

Here's something that sounds dirty but isn't...I'm wiring my wifes rack. :angry: We've got a show on Sat and her gear was actin' up.... ;)

And Cheers to you ,sir. This thread is fun....'specially when gooned. ;)

We're psychobilly scum...if yer buyin' we're drinkin'!!! Hi-test and Jaeger!!! Me I'm a Finnlandia guy....open the bottle...throw the cap away."I won't need THAT again!!!" ;)

I don't know how to describe the process...just happened. As far as drinking goes...I'M YER MAN!!! I figured out a long time ago that if yer gonna play in bars there's gonna be drinks...if there's gonna be drinks I'm gonna drink 'em!!! So' why not drink at rehearsal so you can play a show somewhat tippsy...the band did not share my theroy!!! ;) My new band however are a bunch of lushes that like having fun. Booze is a non-issue....but mandatory since I'm the band-nazi!!! :angry:

I don't own it either!!! As far as recording goes it was me unless they got Rich to re-record it... We tuned down to Eb so Matt wouldn't strain his voice so much. And I quit the band 'cause I'm a moody fucker...with the attention span of a 2 year old on meth!!!

O.K. Kiddies...Mr. Postman just dropped off the tape and I shall comence with the dubbing...somehow. ;)

Yeah. Something like that. I've always thought...low action, perfect set-up = pro. Maybe fer the studio but not so much if yer a live player like me with absolutly NO finnese!!! I wanted to be Jaco but came across as Lemmy!!!LOL!!!I beat the livin' SHIT outta those things a realized that low action and babying that thing was gettin' me nowhere!!! Mind you, it has to play WELL just set it up fer YOU not "by the book". IF IT WERKS FER YOU DON'T LET ANYONE TELL YOU IT'S WRONG. Make music anyway you can. Just don't suck.

Calgary's never been "bad".My mom's fron there. Matt was never "stressed" nor were any of us when it came to success. It's what we wanted after all.If you're stressed by it all yo're in the wong business!!! Groupies???? The chick from Peteborough.....LOL!!!My wife doesn't count as a "Groupie"!!!!I married her 5 Years after the fact. ;)

:angry: :angry: ;)

Refer to earlier post...No new orders!!!No shop. They're kind of expensive to boot $1800.00 fer a basic "Choas Bass".

There's a guy named Darren Huff in Seattle [search dhuffguitars] the man if amazing!!!! Carl Thompson aproved clones Or search ritter basses!!!!...Uhhhh....WOW!!!!

Ahhh....no.

Now, why would you want me to paint exotic hardwoods PURPLE!!!!! AAACCCKKK!!!! ;)

Instuments are meant to be played...'sides no shop right now.

The one that feels good, sounds great and doesn't have anymore than 5 strings. If you play it and you like it...it's good. Just make music on it. I've been selling guitars fer A LOOOOOOOOOONG time and I get that question all the time and I always give that answer. 9 times outta 10 customer is happy. I sold a guitar to Hugh Dillon once...Happy camper. Besides...I build my own basses...and no, I'm not takin' any orders right now.

Mad Sin The Quakes The Living End Rezurex The Matadors The Creepshow Nekromantix....Psychobilly mostly.

Straight to Hell by The Clash.

As far as learning some our earlier stuff....Matt had these cray little capos with 6 movable "fingers", 1 for each stringAnd you could gets some cool jangly chords with those!!! They don't make 'em anymore...I think. ;)

I think it's funny that the "Punk Kids" think it's funny that I talk about punk, refering to The Clash, the Pistols, The Ramones The Damned...bla bla bla...'What??? Haven't you heard "The ANAL BLEEDING CUNT FUCKS"????....uhhhhh......no.Guess I ain't that punk. Well, they broke up after their first gig.Formed the "Fist Jesus Crew" with the same members doin' the same songs.... WHOOO HOOO!!!!PUNK AS FUCK!!!!...............sheep. ;)

J.T. I'll fergive you for that...LOL!!!Dixie Chicks ROCK!!!! Great musicians...really!!! I couldn't play the banjo like that!!!!

I've got another question...what other types of music do you guys like...I mean stuff that you HATE to admit that you like!!! I'll spill my guts if you spill yours!!!
