Does anyone remember April Wine?
Kookaburra replied to Saul Goodman's topic in Hamer Fan Club Messageboard
The first song I heard was You Could Have Been A Lady, a Hot Chocolate cover, I believe. It didn’t do much for me. Imagine my surprise when they came roaring back some years later. It blew my socks off! I ended up digging them after all! -
Newport 90 Things I should know, but don't

What are you digging about the staples? -

Amen to that! -
My hands are changing. Thinking about going to 9s.
Kookaburra replied to Saul Goodman's topic in Hamer Fan Club Messageboard
That actually was the case for me too when I developed some hand issues around 2012. I did work past the issue. Around 2023, I developed new hand issues. I’m still trying to work through them, but for now it’s thin necks that provide comfort. Funny how that goes. As to string gauges, I’m down from 11s to 9s on 25.5, and 10s on 34.75. I adapted fairly quickly, but I did come from the land of 9s prior to going with 11s. This is also due to hand issues, and it’s been helpful. -
You guys ever hear of Clitspit?
Kookaburra replied to Saul Goodman's topic in Hamer Fan Club Messageboard
Ok, I’ll play… Saul, maybe you should send that fart pedal review that you posted. -

I’m a fan. Saw them a few times, one of those times I had the privilege to be in the opener. Good times! Jerk Of All Trades is a fantastic album, came out a couple years or so after the record that has Jan Brady. As to the band that started this thread, not my thing at all. But, if they’re having fun, that’s cool. -
Greg Koch plays loud unapologetically
Kookaburra replied to Saul Goodman's topic in Hamer Fan Club Messageboard
I first saw Greg in Green Bay, WI, in the late 1980s. There was a great blues oriented bar there called Heroes. Many years later, not to mention many miles between various places lived, I’ve seen him twice here in Appleton, WI, at Gibson Hall in the last year or two. I’ve enjoyed the H out of his shows every time! -

New Guitar Day. Why? Because Glen Buxton!
Kookaburra replied to Saul Goodman's topic in Hamer Fan Club Messageboard
Freakin’ cool. I’m a big Glen fan, listened to Easy Action a few days ago actually. Saw the band in 1973. That guitar has been in my mind for many years! -
At a pub now, but I did spin Humble Pie’s Smokin’ prior to leaving the house.

I need to check that out!

Researching all things Plexi: suggestions wanted
Kookaburra replied to Travis's topic in Hamer Fan Club Messageboard
I’ve a Rockittretro 50, with the PPIMV option. Supersmallbox option, which is an option a guy in India talked Kevin into, because he used public transit. Worked for me, because I was using light rail in Phoenix. Killer amp. -
Just found a three record compilation of Mildred Bailey at my local cool record store. Spinning record three right now.

I had George Benson’s Blue Benson with coffee this morning.

Mott's Shouting and Pointing. Not to be confused with Mott the Hoople. Mott was some members of MTH that continued on with a new singer and guitar player. MTH it isn't, but it's still pretty good.
