  1. It's in the pinned thread.
  2. I thought I was playing bass on the Night Ranger tune and also Train Kept a Rollin'. Minneapolis crew, please confirm.
  3. Apologies in advance if I'm speaking for Hectorp out of turn here, but let's rein ourselves in a little bit. A lot of people will want to play, and there's only a limited amount of time, especially since the Chicago power pop crew who aren't members here will be doing their customary opening sets. People should pick one or two songs each and focus on those so they can nail them. The chances of that happening with, say, "La Villa Strangiato" are low.
  4. Cool photos! Not that I mind, but what happened to this:
  5. Nice. Take it from someone who just did it, getting back into the original hard rock thing at a nice venue is a ton of fun.
  6. The "That Metal Show" guys say that was a song demoed for a possibly reunited Led Zeppelin with Jason Bonham on drums.
  7. I finally got around to installing (or rather, having BadgerDave install) the Custom Custom you sold me in the bridge position of my Mirage. While I'm not an unconditional hater of the JB (and liked it just fine in the Studio I used to own) the CC is FAR superior in the Mirage.
  8. Bullshit followed by a suggestion to steal property. Jol, try stealing a magazine from my shop, sometime. Out of context, the quote is a bit confusing. Then again, maybe it isn't. Is he really lashing out at the makers and readers of Guitar Aficionado (the ideal demographic for his product) and "marketing guys" (the people who fortify a business' bank account)? Not that this would come as a surprise; he never seemed to understand his customer or how to market effectively when he was at Hamer.
  9. I've written a fair amount of marketing horseshit in my day, and read even more. This takes the cake. Anyone who'd be drawn in by this copy is a person with whom I'd have absolutely nothing in common.
  10. I also first saw Motorhead with Wurzel in the lineup. He was a real-life Nigel Tufnel, from the look and the mannerisms to the humor. For my money 1916 is the best Motorhead album, if for no other reason than Philthy is on it.
  11. Some shitty Kay combo Crate CR-112 combo Fender London Reverb combo Marshall Artist 3203 head Soldano HR50 head Marshall JCM900 4502 combo Valvetech VAC22 head (2) Peavey Classic 50 combo Fargen Miniplex head Valvetech VAC50 head Mesa Tremoverb head
  12. Is there a Stongemon-or-otherwise bar that's slightly smaller in diameter so it hangs out of the way versus staying in place? If so, I'd like one of those.
  13. For me it's usually some sort of Pino Palladino fretless bass shit from a Paul Young tune.
  14. My favorite cut off that CD: A beast indeed. Love those double stops with vibrato in his rhythm playing. Pure swagger, essentially the sound of pulling your dick out and waving it around.
  15. It's so you!
  16. You might have to drill an additional hole in the middle. On my USAs the stock tuners had two mounting pegs on the edges, while the Sperzels have a single peg in the middle. One thing to keep in mind about Sperzels is the tuning ratio. It's not as precise as other tuners.
  17. And in concert they'll play one, maybe two tunes off the album, during which everyone will be buying beers or taking leaks. Which begs the question: why bother? Just go on tour.
  18. good choice. It wasn't a choice. It was an obligation.
  19. Aerosmith's Just Push Play out of the top of the Jeep for me... My drummer's girlfriend's sister's cassette copy of Supertramp's "Breakfast in America" out of the passenger window of her car on the NJ Turnpike for me.
  20. Now that I think of it, I'm pretty sure I recall them doing that on an image on their website. Should they ever do the same on a released copy of the album, they will have sunk to the absolute bottom.
  21. Indeed. For I can't think of a bigger insult than to be pictured on a Chickenfoot album.
  22. WHAT??? I had no idea they did that.
  23. The visual of Eddie's fat, unworthy son on stage would create a void for me. It is a concert, after all. Visuals count at a concert. "Mean Street"? "Push Comes to Shove"? Doubtful.
  24. I love that Soundstage set he did with Strange Arrangement that comes up on Palladia every now and again.
