XenForo is the platform the PRS forum is running on. I don't know what it's been like from an administration standpoint, but it's been extremely smooth and painless from my POV. Thanks again for your work - I was pleasantly surprised to see the board back up. Smooth as silk so far. -

Thanks for all your work, Ted. Good luck on the transfer, and I'm happy to help if I can be of assistance. -
I have one that says Bruce Wayne and Batman. And another that says Spit and Swallow.

Be careful with that. Jim Morrison was arrested for being on stage with an allegedly visible dangler. -

Dave Mason, solo artist, a founding member of the band Traffic, writer of the classic rock songs “Feelin’ Alright” and “Hole in My Shoe” and sideman to the Rolling Stones, George Harrison and Jimi Hendrix, has died, according to an announcement from his publicist. He was 79. Mason was inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame with the other original members of Traffic in 2004. In the 1970s he enjoyed solo hits with “Only You Know and I Know” and “We Just Disagree,” and over the years he also performed or recorded with David Crosby, Graham Nash, Michael Jackson, Cass Elliot, Leon Russell and others. A fiery guitarist and strong songwriter and singer, Mason first rose to prominence as a member of Traffic, the psychedelic-era band fronted by Steve Winwood. While he wrote some of the band’s biggest hits — notably “Hole in My Shoe” (which reached No. 2 on the British singles charts and was later covered in a novelty version by the comedy troupe the Young Ones) and the song “Feelin’ Alright,” later definitively covered by Joe Cocker — he had an on-off relationship with the band, although he contributed heavily to their first two albums, 1967’s psychedelic classic “Mr. Fantasy,” and the self-titled sophomore effort. ------- RIP, sir.

Did you rip the songs from CDs or did you "buy" them from the iTunes store? Because "buying" digital music, as @specialk points out, might not be what you think it is. If you ripped them, the question becomes what format did you use. If it's MP3, it should be pretty straightforward to port them to another app, although storage space on your phone may be an issue. If you used something else, you may need to convert the files first.

You guys ever hear of Clitspit?
alantig replied to Saul Goodman's topic in Hamer Fan Club Messageboard
Big deal. You want impressive? Show me a woman that can pick up the quarter and spit out two dimes and a nickel. -
It's about damn time. Everyone knows that guitarists have been clamoring for something new, something different, something unique. As long as it's mahogany with a maple top and shaped like a Les Paul/Strat/Tele and sounds like a Les Paul/Strat/Tele with the same control layout.

Lynyrd Skynyrd 1977, Oakland CA, "Sweet Home Alabama."
alantig replied to Saul Goodman's topic in Hamer Fan Club Messageboard
I finally saw Skynyrd a couple years ago. It was before Rossington died, but he wasn’t on the tour at that point. Afterwards, I said to my buddy (who is a longtime fan), “Well, I finally saw Skynyrd, but did I really?” He said, “You didn’t.” I’m hesitant to hit some of these bands with the “tribute” label. Members change - I get that. But at some point, doesn’t it really stop being the same band? We used to joke about how some of the oldies/doo-wop groups would come to town and there was nobody in the band you’d ever heard of, and we’d say, “At least the bands we really like aren’t doing that,” except now they really are. Foghat is just Roger Earl. Jefferson Starship has David Freiburg. Foreigner and Kansas are touring w/no original members. At some point, the name really should be retired. Although I did read an article about how some bands are being sent out to protect a name or trademark. It is a business after all. -
