Welcome, from yet another bassist!

Trotted over as part of the WAG exodus.

Thanks! Two bands: one gets a few gigs a month, the other was practicing for the past 5 months -- and the drummer quit. Just finished auditions and we're back on track. Good thing I got a full-time job (and more) to keep me distracted! :D (Sorry for the hijack . . .)

Amen! I just realized I haven't surfed or posted here in 3 months. Been doing a lot of jamming and playing out, though . . .

I always considered it a "Mr. Haney, the hick" affectation. You know, how he always used to say, "Now Mr. Douglas . . ."? Used by country singers to show just how down-home they really are.

It may sound cool -- but it doesn't make me any better of a player! :D But I'll see what I can scrape together.

Axis -- Bold as Love. For the music, sure (especially the title song), but the cover art is interesting too. For my birthday a few months ago I got a 4-disc compilation of previously unreleased and live material that is very enlightening.

A toss up between three: Lazy -- Deep Purple Because We Ended as Lovers -- Jeff Beck Since I've been Loving You -- Led Zeppelin I think there's a pattern to my choices . . .

Right down the road from me: http://www.exoticwoods.com Mahogany, tulipwood -- the wenge is very dark.

LOL! That's wild, Strum. Good luck!
